After Wednesday’s loss to the Heat at State Farm Arena, the Hawks are on a nine-game losing streak at home.

Their most recent win at home came against the Thunder on Nov. 22. Since then, they’ve registered consecutive home losses to the Knicks, 76ers, Hornets, Nets, Rockets, Nuggets, Magic, Bulls and now the Heat. The Hawks (17-23) failed to win a home game in December and are 8-10 at home this season.
