Trae Young scored 24 points, rookie De'Andre Hunter added 18 and the Atlanta Hawks snapped a 10-game losing streak with a 104-79 win over the Golden State Warriors on Monday night in a matchup of teams with the worst records in the NBA.

The Warriors (4-18) finished with a season low in points. It was the lowest point total allowed by the Hawks (5-16). Golden State dressed just nine players, even with center Kevon Looney returning to action after missing 19 games with a nerve condition.

Rookie Eric Paschall led Golden State with 24 points, but his teammates combined to shoot 24 of 72, and the Warriors were slowed by 25 turnovers, which the Hawks converted into 25 points.

PACERS 117, GRIZZLIES 104: Malcolm Brogdon scored 19 points, Domantas Sabonis added 18 and the Pacers beat the depleted Grizzlies. Memphis was short-handed as five players - all key parts of the rotation - sat out with various ailments.

Seven players scored in double figures for the balanced Pacers, including Myles Turner with 17 points. Jaren Jackson Jr. led Memphis with a season-high 31 points.

BUCKS 132, KNICKS 88: Giannis Antetokounmpo needed only 14 minutes to record another double-double, finishing with 29 points and 15 rebounds as Milwaukee won its 12th straight game.

The Bucks (18-3) led by as many as 47 and cruised behind Antetokounmpo. The reigning MVP shot 10 of 14 from the field, including 3 of 4 from 3-point range, while playing 22 minutes.

76ERS 103, JAZZ 94: James Ennis III hit a 3 and dropped for three pushups, and Tobias Harris scored 26 points to lead Philadelphia.

Al Horford scored 17 points to help the Sixers win for the eighth time in nine games and improve to 10-0 at home. Ennis, Philly's super sub, had the crowd going wild in the first half when he was fouled on a 3 and did three quick pushups

to stretch the lead to 26 points.

SUNS 109, HORNETS 104: Kelly Oubre Jr. scored 23 points, including two clutch 3-pointers in the final minute that snapped a three-game skid by the Suns.

Devin Booker added 23 points and Dario Saric had 16 points and 10 rebounds for Phoenix. Marvin Williams led the Hornets with a season-high 22 points and Devonte Graham had 15 points and 12 assists.
