CJ McCollum led New Orleans with 29 points, one shy of his season high. Dejounte Murray, greeted by cheers in his first return to Atlanta since being traded by the Hawks last offseason, finished with seven points and 10 assists.

Takeaways Pelicans: New Orleans bounced back a bit from a dismal offensive performance against New York on Sunday, when the Pelicans scored a season-low 85 points.

Hawks: Atlanta shooters got rolling in the second half, and seven players finished with at least 10 points. The Hawks shot 51% from the field overall.

Key moment After a cold first half of shooting, Young hit a 3-pointer with 2:46 to go in the third quarter to give the Hawks an 80-73 lead — their largest of the game to that point. A minute later, Hunter sank another 3 to increase the margin to 10.

Key stat Atlanta had 31 assists and has finished with 25 or more in a franchise-record 14 consecutive games.

Up Next Atlanta plays at Milwaukee on Wednesday, while New Orleans hosts the Phoenix Suns on Thursday.
