What happened: Rookie center Zuby Ejiofor is plus-9 in a Las Vegas Summer League game the Hawks are trailing by eight points overall, per @KLChouinard. The split shows the interior physicality Atlanta gets with him on the floor disappearing the moment he sits.
Why it matters: The swing points to how much of Atlanta's summer frontcourt toughness runs through the same Zuby Ejiofor Atlanta has been tracking since the draft. A double-digit gap between his on-court mark and the team's overall deficit signals a thin frontcourt rotation behind him.
By the numbers: Ejiofor: +9 on-court differential. Hawks: -8 team margin in the same game.
What to watch: Watch how Atlanta manages Ejiofor's minutes and bench frontcourt depth for the rest of the Las Vegas Summer League slate.
