The Hawks won the fourth duel 103: 100 and thus equalized 2: 2 overall. The Clippers were also able to win their second home game in a row and, like the Utah Jazz, have two victories after 118: 104. The day before, the Milwaukee Bucks equalized 2-2 against the Brooklyn Nets – only the Phoenix Suns were able to prevail 4-0 against the Denver Nuggets and are the first team in the conference finals.
Philadelphia had the game completely under control in the first half, but then lost the thread and has to deal with a bitter disappointment before the home game on Thursday night. Despite problems on the shoulder, Hawks professional Trae Young got 25 points and four rebounds – his 18 assists were his personal career best. All starting players of the Hawks also scored at least ten points in front of their own audience. The guests’ best thrower was Tobias Harris with 20 points.
The Clippers got off to a strong start and were already leading 30:13 after the first quarter. The Jazz shortened in the final phase, but could not avert the second defeat in a row. The best thrower for the Jazz was Donovan Mitchell with 37 points, with the Clippers Kawhi Leonard and Paul George had the highest values with 31 points each.
