Young takes over to lift Hawks by Clippers to end road-trip in victory

The Atlanta Hawks wrapped up their four-game road-trip with a 112-108 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday night.

Trae Young scored 30 points to lead the way, with De’Andre Hunter adding 20 points. For the Clippers — without Paul George and Luke Kennard — Kawhi Leonard led the hosts with 29 points. Ivica Zubac added 17 points and 18 rebounds.

Things were looking great for Atlanta in the second quarter when the Hawks shot 70.8% from the field en route to 41 points, pushing their lead to as many as 17 points before taking a 14 point lead into the locker-room after a wild sequence in which John Collins finished an alley-oop play before Hunter stole John Wall’s inbounds pass and finishing at the rim with a monster dunk.
