Dejounte Murray continued his hot scoring with 24 points -- one of three Atlanta players with 20-plus points -- as the Hawks extended their winning streak to three games with a 130-121 victory over the visiting Washington Wizards on Wednesday.
Murray, who matched his career high with 41 points on Monday, shot 10-for-15 from the field and 3-for-5 from 3 point range. He added eight assists and four rebounds and one steal.
Atlanta has won four straight against Washington and extended its franchise-record streak of 100-plus point games to 62 games, the longest active run in the NBA.
The Hawks also got 23 points and 10 assists from Trae Young, who had been listed as questionable due to right Achilles inflammation but was able to play 35 minutes. Young now has at least five assists in 112 straight games, matching Deron Williams for the sixth-longest streak in NBA history.
De'Andre Hunter added 23 points and seven rebounds for the Hawks, who had seven players score double figures.
