Overview

  • Jalen Johnson posted 31 points, 18 rebounds, 14 assists and seven steals for his third career triple-double, a line cited by StatMuse as unprecedented in NBA records.
  • Atlanta sank 24 three-pointers, the most by any team this season, including a franchise-record 15 before halftime with Vit Krejci hitting six overall and going 5-for-5 in the first half.
  • Onyeka Okongwu delivered a career-high 32 points with 11 rebounds, drilling 8 of 14 from beyond the arc after never making more than four threes in a game.
  • Lauri Markkanen scored 40 and rookie Ace Bailey added a career-best 21 as Utah briefly moved in front before the Hawks closed it out with an 8-0 late run.
  • The shorthanded Hawks, who also rested Kristaps Porzingis, improved to 8-5 and four straight wins as Trae Young remains out with a right knee MCL sprain.
