Hawks Beat Wizards 139-132 as Trae Young Returns to Atlanta for the First Time as a Visitor
ATLANTA, Georgia — The Atlanta Hawks beat the Washington Wizards 139-132 at home on Friday, November 6, for their third straight win and their first NBA Cup group-stage victory. Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 28 points as Atlanta held off Washington's comeback; it was the Hawks' second straight win over the Wizards, sweeping the home-and-home back-to-back set. The night's big storyline was Trae Young's first game back in Atlanta as a visiting player: after seven-plus seasons with the Hawks, he was traded to Washington in January 2026. Young finished with 23 points and 10 assists but also a season-high 8 turnovers. Hawks forward Jalen Johnson missed his third straight game with a left ankle sprain. Atlanta hosts the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night, November 7, while Washington visits the Oklahoma City Thunder the same day.
