The Pacers enter play winners in four of five games and enjoyed a 10-2 January to springboard themselves into the Eastern Conference playoff picture. After leading the NBA in scoring last season, Indiana has found its offensive form of late, averaging 134.5 points in its last two wins.
Johnson's absence has placed more of an importance on the offensive play of Trae Young. Atlanta's point guard is averaging 22.5 points and a league-high 11.4 assists per game but was left off the Eastern Conference All-Star reserve list on Thursday, much to the chagrin of his head coach Quin Snyder.
"I'm extremely disappointed," Snyder said of Young's snub. "I haven't coached him for long, but I feel like he's had the best year of his career. I think that's statistically supported. ... No disrespect to anyone who made it, but as Trae's coach, I am allowed to feel disappointment for him not making it."
In the Hawks' 137-115 road loss Thursday to the Cleveland Cavaliers, which extended Atlanta's longest losing streak since 2019, last year's top overall draft pick Zaccharie Risacher finished with 30 points on 11-for-14 shooting from the field. The 19-year-old is averaging 11.0 ppg and will compete in the Rising Stars Challenge on All-Star Weekend in San Francisco.

Still pondering tonight's Lakers/Knicks game if I decide I'll post it
One game before LeBron James made his annual visit to Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks were reminded yet again that Jalen Brunson is finally the James-esque superstar they've been searching for since James entered the NBA.
Brunson will look to help the Knicks remain perfect on a five-game homestand Saturday night when New York hosts the Los Angeles Lakers in the first clash between the big-market giants this season.
The Knicks have been off since Wednesday night, when Brunson joined a select group of franchise icons by finishing with 30 points and 15 assists in a 122-112 win over the Denver Nuggets. The Lakers continued a six-game road trip Thursday night by cruising past the Washington Wizards 134-96.
