AJ Griffin hits buzzer beater to give Hawks win vs Bulls

AJ Griffin is the promising rookie for the Atlanta Hawks. During the offseason, the Hawks retooled in hopes of returning to their 2021 form. Two years ago, the Hawks took the NBA by storm, getting hot late in the season. In the playoffs, the Hawks upset their way to the Eastern Conference Finals. There, the Hawks would lose to the eventual 2021 champions, the Milwaukee Bucks. Ever since, the Hawks have shown signs of promise.

AJ Griffin was the 16th overall pick for the Atlanta Hawks, this year. He joined after playing one year at Duke, where he made a major impact. As a result, Griffin declared himself eligible for the NBA Draft. In the time since then, he has become a solid rotational piece for the Hawks. Already, Griffin has made two game winning buzzer beating shots, which have carried the Hawks to victory. Last night was probably the biggest one.

AJ Griffin played his role well, as the Atlanta Hawks were hosting the Chicago Bulls. This season, the Hawks have visibly struggled. While they have shown capabilities of beating teams like the Milwaukee Bucks, they have also taken home blowout losses to the Charlotte Hornets. Last night, the Hawks appeared in control, against the struggling Chicago Bulls. However, the Bulls stormed back to force overtime. It looked like a Chicago win, until Trae Young threw the game winning lob to Griffin.
