Analysis: Hawks can’t recover after Nets’ run in fourth quarter

NEW YORK —

Despite 47 points from Trae Young, the Hawks (6-24) were outscored by 23 points in the fourth quarter in their 122-112 loss to the Nets (16-13) Saturday at Barclays Center.

1. After taking a 13-point lead into the fourth quarter, the Hawks collapsed and could barely make a shot the rest of the game. The Nets started the quarter on a 14-0 run, holding the Hawks scoreless until a floater by Trae Young at the 6:36 mark, but that bucket did nothing to jump-start the rest of the offense — Young scored 12 of the Hawks’ 14 points in the fourth, with Alex Len contributing the other two points.
