NEW ORLEANS — Jalen Johnson scored 29 points and the Atlanta Hawks snapped a four-game skid with a 126-111 victory over the short-handed New Orleans Pelicans. Zion Williamson was scratched from the lineup with right hamstring tightness shortly before the game, leaving Brandon Ingram as the club's only usual starter available to play. Ingram scored 32 points, but it wasn't enough to overcome a Hawks squad that had six players score at least 11 points. Trae Young scored 23, while former Pelican Dyson Daniels, back from a two-game injury absence, added 16 points for Atlanta. Hawks forward Larry Nance Jr. scored 14 against his former team.
