Hawks center Zaza Pachulia (Achilles) and forward Vladimir Radmanovic (back) were in the lineup Sunday after also playing Saturday. It was the first time in more than three weeks that Atlanta had as many as 13 players available in consecutive games.
Hawks guard Joe Johnson, normally loathe to say much to officials, has been barking at them more often lately when he thinks he deserves calls. “It’s tough at times,” he said. “I try to stay away off them because we’ve got so many other guys on the team who are talking to them. But there comes a point in time where I have to say something.”
The Hawks and Jazz combined for four points in the first overtime Sunday. That tied for the second-fewest combined points in an overtime period in NBA history, a feat that happened three previous times. Denver and Charlotte combined for two points in an overtime period Jan. 13, 1997, to set the record.
