Trae Young had 40 points and 13 assists, Dejounte Murray added 32 points and the Atlanta Hawks overcame a slow start and spotty late foul shooting to beat the Washington Wizards 130-126 on Sunday. Jalen Johnson scored a career-high 24 points and had 13 rebounds on a day when four Hawks finished with double-doubles to help their team remain unbeaten against the Wizards this season.

The Hawks have capitalized on the Wizards going a litle cold . Garrison Mathews made the extra pass to Trae Young in the corner, Bogdan Bogdanovic hit a finger roll layup off a strip, Mathews just sent a Kispert shot to McLean, VA and the game was w/in 1 – 3:35 PM

There were at least 3 occasions in the Knicks’ 117-108 loss to a physical Orlando Magic defense on Friday where a clear foul on a Jalen Brunson drive to the rim went uncalled.
Trae Young is averaging 2x as many FTs off the same # of drives this season nydailynews.com/2023/12/30/kni… – 11:41 AM

Mike Brown is challenging the call. Trae Young clearly grabbed Duarte’s arm, but Duarte had his hand on Young’s hip. Not sure he wins this. – 9:41 PM

Interesting lineup here: Clint, Onyeka and three great shooters: Trae, Bogi and Patty Mills. – 8:11 PM

Trae and Jalen just re-entered the game together, ostensibly so that Jalen can be the one to guard Fox when Dejounte sits. – 8:01 PM

OMG what a pass from Trae Young to Clint Capela — My goodness. How did he get that by Sabonis…
Also it’s the Capela Show early… – 7:48 PM

It’s Prize Picks time! Fox loves playing against Trae Young. The battle between Sabonis and Capela should be a good one. Plenty to choose from tonight with Kings/Hawks.

More on this storyline
Atlanta Hawks PR: Trae Young has notched his Eastern Conference-leading 10th 30-point, 10-assist game of the season and the 72nd of his career (second-most in NBA this season). The 25-year-old is one 30p/10a assist game away from tying Jerry West (73) for the sixth-most such games in NBA history. -via Twitter @HawksPR / December 31, 2023
Kevin Chouinard: Onyeka Okongwu (illness) is out today vs. Washington. Trae Young remains listed as probable. -via Twitter @KLChouinard / December 31, 2023
Lauren L. Williams: Officially official, Jalen Johnson is back. Trae Young is also available. pic.twitter.com/TKwOHaou6p -via Twitter @WilliamsLaurenL / December 26, 2023
