<p>The Atlanta Hawks tied the game with four seconds remaining, but San Antonio hit a last-second jumper to take the game.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.peachtreehoops.com/">Atlanta Hawks</a> lost to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.poundingtherock.com/">San Antonio Spurs</a> on Wednesday night, 101-99, dropping the exhibition contest. San Antonio led for much of the game, but Atlanta was able to battle back and take the lead at the end of the third quarter.</p>
<p>The Spurs pulled ahead in the fourth but never led by more than six points, and Atlanta pulled even with four seconds left in the game when <span>Mike Scott</span> nailed a three-pointer with an assist from Damion James. That gave the Spurs the final possession, and they made good on it with a jumper by Nando de Colo to win the game.</p>
<p>Forwards Scott and James were tied as leading scorers on the Hawks, both with 11 points. James was a first-round pick in 2010, drafted 24th overall by the Hawks, but he was dealt to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.netsdaily.com/">Nets</a> and spent the following years bouncing around the league. He signed a one-year deal with Atlanta in September. Scott is a second-round pick from the 2012 draft.</p>
<p>Combined, the team shot 38.3 percent on field goals, 8-for-18 on three pointers, and made 19 of 23 freethrow attempts.</p>

<p><span>Larry Drew</span> wouldn't disclose his starting lineup for the game but previously indicated that he would continue to mix and match different combinations throughout the preseason. <span>Kyle Korver</span> and <span>DeShawn Stevenson</span> joined <span>Jeff Teague</span>, Josh Smith and <span>Al Horford</span> in the starting lineup against the Heat.

<p>Devin Harris and Zaza Pachulia took part in contact drills at practice on Tuesday for the first time this preseason. </p> <p><span>Devin Harris</span> and <span>Zaza Pachulia</span> were full participants in practice on Tuesday for the first time this preseason. Harris had been slowed by a sore knee while Pachulia was battling a groin injury that he hurt over the summer while playing with the Georgia national team. <span>DeShawn Stevenson</span> sat out the contact portion of practice on Tuesday but <span>Anthony Tolliver</span> returned to action while wearing protective goggles.</p>
<p>Its unlikely that either Pachulia or Harris will play in Wednesday's game against San Antonio and the status of Stevenson and Tolliver is unknown. Drew did say earlier in the week that he hoped to get rookies <span>John Jenkins</span> and <span>Mike Scott</span> some action against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.poundingtherock.com/">Spurs</a>.</p>
<p>Atlanta played 12 players in the preseason opener against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.hothothoops.com/">Heat</a> with Stevenson and <span>Kyle Korver</span> joining <span>Jeff Teague</span>, <span>Al Horford</span> and <span>Josh Smith</span> in the starting lineup. Following that game, Drew said that he would likely switch up his starting lineups during the preseason in an effort to get a look at different combinations.</p>
