6 years agoAtlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Kent Bazemore came off the bench for the first time all season Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets but still finished the game on the floor, and thankfully so for Atlanta, as he made the game-winning layup with 4.6 seconds to play. Despite entering the day questionable to play with an ankle injury, Bazemore amassed 20 points off the bench on 9-for-11 shooting, even adding in five assists and four rebounds across 25 minutes of action. It’s still to be seen if this forces him back into the starting lineup, but if Sunday is any indication, he’ll get plenty of touches even if he comes off the bench.--Jesse Borek
