Looking to hammer down a spot in the annuls of the Western Conference, San Antonio Spurs make an advent into today’s encounter looking to record their fifth win in seven matches. A win holds paramount importance for them owing to the slight slump in form they have seen in ther bygone encounters with the outfit falling to defeats twice in their last three encounters.
It includes a 103-96 defeat against Los Angeles Lakers in their last outing, a result the side will be looking to make amends for come today’s clash against Atlanta Hawks. After beginning their season in riveting fashion with three wins out of three, the side have regressed and gone on a decline recently, something they’ll be looking to overhaul against a side who themselves a shrouded in a sorry predicament.
With just the two wins in three matches, Atlanta Hawks find themselves languishing in 9th spot in the Eastern Conference with despite the sporadic bit of glimpses of pristine basketball, the side having little to offer till now. It’s been a despondent set of results for them in the opening exchanges of the league, one which have seen their raucous set of supporters left yearning for a win.
What will buoy the side ahead of their home clash today is the five day break the side were accorded, one which they’ll have used judiciously in their favour to address the perils pegging the side back. Although the visiting side enter today’s clash as overwhelming favourites, the form they carry into this clash doesn’t bode well for the side, something which is set to make this a closely fought affair.

ATL vs SAS Dream11 Point Guard
Both our point guards will be coming in from the visiting side for this encounter in the form of Derrick White and Patty Mills. The two have formed for an indomitable partnership one which has ensured that the centre of the court has been controlled for the side with their quick ball movements ensuring the ball rotations have been carried out seamlessly to dictate the play for the side.
ATL vs SAS Dream11 Shooting Guard
We are opting for Kevin Huerter in this segment of our side with the injuries which Atlanta Hawks have suffered at the moment seeing the shooting guard earn an escalated role out on the court for the side. And with the opposition showing gaping holes in defence, the player will be looking to exploit on their vulnerabilities and position himself outside the circle to send baskets.
ATL vs SAS Dream11 Small Forward
The aforementioned discourse sees us rope in Can Reddish from the home side as well for this one with him and Huerter se t to intertwine their skill set in unison to form for a daunting duo. The partnership will divulge into their repertoire of attributes to try and dismiss San Antonio Spurs with disdain and act as the fulcrum of their side’s gameplan come today.
ATL vs SAS Dream11 Power Forward
We finally compensate for the players from San Antonio Spurs by getting in Trey Lyles from the side. He comes in owing to his dual nature as a player, one which will see him play a pivotal role in both the dockets of his side’s play to amass a slew of points for us from this one.
From the opposition on the other hand, we have the one player come into our setup as well with Jabari Parker being our choice for today’s clash.
ATL vs SAS Dream11 Centre
LaMarcus Aldridge has emerged as one of the key components for San Antonio Spurs this season given his ability to become the first player to lunge onto the deflections and rebounds and ensure quick break points are transpired for the side. Along with it, his ability to screen the opposition’s players and pull of steals and blocks have made him an adequate defender as well, a player who is indispensible to his side.
Alex Len comes in from Atlanta Hawks meanwhile to bring an end to our Dream 11 proceedings for this imminent tie.
