An offensive masterclass from Trae Young helped the Atlanta Hawks to a 108-99 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
After the Clippers took a six-point lead into half-time, Young sparked a third-quarter scoring surge which LA were unable to make up down the stretch.
He finished with 38 points as the Hawks handed the Clippers just their fifth loss of the season.
