5-1 · 2ND IN EASTERN CONFERENCE
Jayson Tatum Praised For Reaction After Being Decked By Grant Williams Jayson Tatum earned praise from NBA fans for his reaction to the big hit from Grant Williams.
Neemias Queta - Pops for 12 points in win Queta recorded 12 points (6-6 FG), six rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Friday's 124-109 victory over the Hornets.
Impact Queta logged a season-high 24 minutes, making the most of the fact that Al Horford was resting. While Luke Kornet got the start, it was Queta who stepped up, something to keep in mind the next time Horford is given the night off. With that said, the allocation of minutes could vary depending on the matchup, so there is no guarantee Queta plays 24 minutes next time.

Luke Kornet - Quiet in spot start Kornet totaled five points (2-2 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 24 minutes during Friday's 124-109 win over the Hornets.
Impact Kornet shifted into the starting lineup, replacing Al Horford who was resting on the first night of a back-to-back. Despite starting, Kornet failed to produce anything of note, other than his three combined steals and blocks. Based on this performance and what we have seen from Kornet thus far, he is not someone who needs to be prioritized, even when Horford is chilling on the sideline.

Jayson Tatum - Does it all in win Tatum contributed 32 points (9-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 11-13 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 36 minutes during Friday's 124-109 victory over the Hornets.
Impact Tatum scored at least 32 points for the fourth time in seven games and recorded his third double-double -- second with points and rebounds. In the fourth quarter, the Hornets, who kept the game reasonably close, fell apart and committed a handful of flagrant fouls, including Grant Williams seemingly intentionally running into Tatum at halfcourt. The All-Star forward showed no ill effects of the collision and remains on a torrid start to the 2024-25 campaign.
