Atlanta Hawks Top Portland Trail Blazers 122-113

After producing 47 points in a win over the Pacers on Sunday, Ice Trae poured in 46 points, 12-assist marking his 11th career 40-point, 10-assist game, one such game away from tying LeBron James and Allen Iverson (12) for seventh-most in NBA history to help the Hawks defeat the Portland Trailblazers at State Farm Arena on Monday night.

Even with Atlanta center John Collins and forward Danilo Gallinari out due to injuries Atlanta’s defensive efforts was the key to the big win against Portland. 

The Hawks have now won three straight, and six home wins in a row to improve to 34-34, are ninth in the Eastern Conference, and are back to .500 for the first time since Dec. 15.

Up Next: The Hawks looks to extend their three game winning streak when the team head on the road to matchup with the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night.
