Do you know who was voted the NBA’s Eastern Conference Player of January? It was the Atlanta Hawks’ starting five.

That’s right – five starting players were voted as the NBA’s Conference Player of the Month. It is a testament to their accomplishments as a team that the league decided to award them as a whole. They became the first team in NBA history to go 17-0 in a calendar month.

The Hawks have had an incredible season, and it is only just that the team is rewarded for their incredible month.
