That was the club’s most successful season since finishing at the top of the Eastern Conference in 1993-94. It marked the first time since the Southeast Division was created (ahead of 2004-05) that the division title was not won by a team from the state of Florida.
Atlanta reached its first-ever Eastern Conference Finals since the NBA was divided into two conferences, but the club’s season ended with a four-game sweep against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Hawks returned to the conference finals in 2021.
However, they were defeated in six games by the eventual champion Milwaukee Bucks, led by two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo and former Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer.
