In Sunday's 117-106 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, there were a few moments of promise for the young Atlanta Hawk.

The Hawks (1-6), who rank as the NBA’s fourth-worst team in points per game (98.5), showed some passing skill in the second quarter.

With 3:20 remaining in the first half, smooth interior passing from Dennis Schroder to Isaiah Taylor to John Collins resulted in a layup.

Collins finished Sunday’s game with 14 points and seven rebounds.

The Hawks travel to play the Philadelphia 76ers at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
