Atlanta Hawks' tunnel decorated with student-designed posters
When the Atlanta Hawks take the Philips Arena court for practices and games this NBA playoffs, they'll do so walking by an impressive motivational display: a slew of signs designed by Atlanta metropolitan area students.
The Hawks began their postseason with a 99–92 home win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, and Game 2 is slated for a 7 p.m. ET Wednesday tipoff. Center Al Horford said on Tuesday that he would play, despite sustaining a dislocated finger in Game 1. Horford recorded 10 points and 10 rebounds in 34 minutes of Game 1.
