The Atlanta Hawks notched a second successive victory as they defeated the short-handed Indiana Pacers 131-128 on Sunday evening at State Farm Arena.
Trae Young starred, scoring 47 points, while both Danilo Gallinari — inserted into the starting lineup in place of the injured John Collins — and De’Andre Hunter added 15 points as seven Hawks scored in double-digits.
For the Pacers — who were without T.J. Warren, Malcolm Brogdon, T.J. McConnell, Myles Turner and Ricky Rubio and only had eight players available — both Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield scored 25 points each in a very spirited effort.
