ATLANTA — Trae Young had 12 points and 15 assists for his 15th double-double of the season, and the Atlanta Hawks beat the New Orleans Pelicans 124-112 for their fourth straight victory. De'Andre Hunter scored a team-high 22 off the bench for the Hawks on his 27th birthday. 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. The depleted Pelicans have lost nine in a row overall, and 11 of 12 on the road this season. The team's long injury list includes star players Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram.
