John Collins scored 21 points and Dejounte Murray added 20 as the Atlanta Hawks overcame an ejection to leading scorer Trae Young and took a 143-130 win over the visiting Indiana Pacers on Saturday.
Young was given a technical foul and ejected for throwing the ball harshly back to the referee. The game was tied 84-84 with 7:25 left in the third quarter when the incident occurred. Young was still frustrated about having a 3-pointer taken away and turned into an offensive foul. He finished with 14 points and five assists.
Atlanta (37-37) also got 18 points from Saddiq Bey, and 17 points and 17 rebounds from Clint Capela. Garrison Mathews, who logged many of Young’s minutes, scored 14 points and made four 3-pointers.
