News and Notes

Nov 27
Smith had 20 points (9-of-18 FG, 2-of-5 FT), six rebounds, an assist, two steals, and three blocks in the Hawks' win on Friday. Recommendation: Smith's free throw percentage (57 percent) is the only sore spot in his fantasy game this year. He's improved his shot selection, and the injuries that limited his athleticism last season are no long a factor. |

After sitting for all but 44 seconds of the final period because of foul trouble, Smith soared through the lane to drop in a missed shot with 0.7 seconds remaining and the Atlanta Hawks won their seventh in a row, beating the Houston Rockets 105-103 Friday night to maintain the NBA's best record. Advice: Smith finished with just nine points, well below his season average of 15.7. Foul trouble had something to do with the low total. |

F Josh Smith sat most of the fourth quarter in foul trouble but found his way to the basket after Mike Bibby missed a jumper that could have won the game for the Hawks. Smith finished with just nine points and eight rebounds, but had the biggest of both for a Hawks team that left for New Orleans late Friday night with the best record in the league at 11-2. Smith's put-back dunk at the buzzer decided matters in a hard-fought contest. |
