Saturday’s preseason matchup against the Fever gave the Dream clarity on where they can improve their execution following their 81-76 loss at the Gateway Center.

The Hawks enter another big offseason after their exit from the postseason earlier this month. After a strong start early in the season, the Hawks looked like they finally had found the formula for generating success.

Though the Hawks finished the regular season with 40 wins, they experienced major slides because of their lack of depth and size in the frontcourt.
