Jalen Johnson's 29 points lead the Hawks past the depleted Pelicans, 126-111

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 on Sunday night. Pelicans star forward 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 in uniform. Ingram scored 32, but it wasn't enough to overcome a Hawks squad with six players with at least 11 points.
