Atlanta (CNN)Last season had so much promise for the Atlanta Hawks.
The city of Atlanta was buzzing. The Hawks were going to the NBA playoffs again, but this time it was different.
Fans in Atlanta usually expect an early-round exit, but in late March 2015, the Hawks had already clinched the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, wrapping up one of their best seasons in franchise history. Realistically, the NBA Finals were within reach.

But that dream started to unravel April 8, 2015, in New York City, when the Hawks lost one of their key players for the season because of injuries. Those injuries, forward Thabo Sefolosha has said, were caused by police, for which he is now suing the city and several police officers.
A year after the incident, Sefolosha says he needs a little bit of extra time on the training table to prepare for games, but he otherwise is healthy.
“It’s still a process,” Sefolosha said. “I’ve got to go through a few things before I can get on the court and play at this level, but I feel pretty good and I’m confident on my abilities and my body, so I feel good.”
And a year after having to sit one out, Sefolosha is happy to be back in the postseason.
“I think a lot of times, we take it for granted,” Sefolosha said. “Last year helped me a lot on that aspect. I’m excited about those games. Being where we are right now, it’s a great chance, a great opportunity.”
