East victorious again as Hawks snap Thunder's 4-game winning streak

ATLANTA - Paul Millsap scored 26 points and Jeff Teague made all the big shots down the stretch, sending the Atlanta Hawks to a 106-100 victory that snapped the Oklahoma City Thunder's four-game winning streak Monday night.

Russell Westbrook had 34 points including a drive with 2:49 remaining that gave the Thunder their first lead since scoring the opening basket. Westbrook knocked down a jumper to push Oklahoma City to a four-point lead.

Teague took control from there. The point guard darted into the lane for a basket that thwarted the Thunder's run, Millsap hit a pair of free throws to tie it, and Teague scored on another dash to the rim to put Atlanta ahead for good, 98-96, with 1:09 left.
