SportSouth will use its Phantom Cam during Tuesday’s Hawks-Thunder game - a first this season.

The camera, which the network used at several Braves games last season, can record up to 5,000 frames per second. The camera makes for detailed slow-motion replays. The typical slow-motion camera records 380 frames per second, according to the network.

Tuesday’s game is the only Hawks game currently scheduled to use the camera.
