After falling to the Hornets 116-106 in Charlotte, the Hawks snapped Memphis’ four-game winning streak with a 105-120 victory on Friday night at State Farm Arena without Big Man John Collins, and Hawks star point guard Trae Young who was out with a left quad contusion.
Atlanta has now won 15 of its last 17 games played at State Farm Arena, which includes a season-high seven straight home victories.
