Warriors, Hawks prioritizing health over NBA’s best record
Barring a major turn of events, the only thing the Golden State Warriors and Atlanta Hawks have left to play for is the NBA's best record. Warriors coach Steve Kerr and Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer have been regularly resting players to keep them fresh for the playoffs. After all, Atlanta (53-17) began Monday with an eight-game lead over Cleveland in the Eastern Conference, and Golden State (56-13) was 7 1/2 games ahead of Memphis in the West. Golden State routed Atlanta 114-95 last Wednesday, while the Hawks beat the Warriors 124-116 at home in February.
