Scott tallied 20 points (10-13 FG), 10 rebounds, an assist, and a block over 29 minutes in Friday's 115-87 preseason loss to the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

After a very quiet start to the preseason, Scott exploded from the field over the final two games, shooting at a blistering 73 percent (19-for-26) clip over that span. The fourth-year pro also posted his first double-double of the exhibition slate against the Pistons, often looking like one of the few Hawks who took an interest in the contest. Scott's heap of legal entanglements have apparently done little to distract him on the court, and he figures to see some consistent minutes in relief of Paul Millsap at the four during the regular season.
