The Hawks’ former senior vice president of financial planning and analysis allegedly spent years stealing money from the organization.

Here is the good, the bad and the ugly from the Hawks’ loss to the Cavaliers on Sunday at Rocket Arena.

The Hawks struggled to score in their first game without star guard Trae Young and fell 117-109 to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Hawks star guard Trae Young will miss several weeks after an MRI revealed an MCL sprain in his right knee.

As the Hawks navigate a potential long-term absence from Trae Young, they’ll have to lean on defensive pressure to generate more offensive possessions.

Without Trae Young, the Hawks fell behind the short-handed Pacers early, but eventually rolled to a 128-108 win.

The Atlanta Hawks exercised their third-year option on Zaccharie Risacher after a standout rookie season that included All-Rookie honors and multiple 30-point games.

Hawks' guard Trae Young will miss the first game of the NBA Cup against the Pacers on Friday night and will have an MRI on an injured knee by Thursday.

The Hawks' 3-point shooting was better against the Nets, foul trouble was still a problem and Trae Young sprained his knee and will likely miss several games.
