The Hawks have the best rookie in the NBA this season in center Al Horford. Horford has played in 54 games this season for the Hawks and he is averaging 31.5 minutes, 9.3 points, 10.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 block per game. He is shooting 47.2% from the floor but he needs to improve on his 67.9% shooting from the free throw line. Look for Horford to improve on offense as long as he gets a tad more selfish with the basketball but that’s nitpicking. Point guard Acie Law has not played well this season despite high hopes from the Hawks Front Office. Law has played in 40 games this season for the Hawks and he is averaging 17.3 minutes, 4.6 points, 1.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. Law has not shot too well this year as he is hitting only 38.3% from the floor but he’s solid from the free throw line (80.6%). With Mike Bibby now a Hawk, it will be hard for Law to get much playing time. G/F Mario West doesn’t play much but he appears to be a talented guy. He has played in 42 games this season for the Hawks and he is averaging 4.6 minutes, 1.2 points, 0.8 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game. He has shot 47.6% from the floor but only 66.7% from the free throw line which he needs to improve on. Overall, the Hawks have to be pleased with this rookie crop which will help them big time both now and in the future.
