ATLANTA — Trae Young hit a 3-pointer with 7.4 seconds left in overtime and the Atlanta Hawks held on for their sixth straight win, beating the slumping Los Angeles Lakers 134-132. Young scored 31 points to offset a huge night by the Lakers' Big Two. LeBron James scored 39 points and Anthony Davis had 38, but it wasn't enough to prevent Los Angeles from taking its third straight loss and seventh defeat in the last nine games. James had a chance to win it for the Lakers, but his long 3-pointer clanked off the rim just before the horn sounded.
