The Atlanta Hawks ended their mini-skid of a two game losing patch with a 137-132 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in a high-scoring affair at Paycom Center on Wednesday night.
Trae Young led the way with 33 points and 11 assists, while Dejounte Murray added 21 points. For the Thunder, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 36 points with Jalen Williams adding 24 points.
Offense was very much the name of the game, with somehow both teams being tied at 77 apiece at the end of the first half, a season-high for the Hawks in points in a half, and while that should have been enough to take more than a double-digit lead in most games Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had other ideas.
