Kristaps Porziņģis put up 29 points with efficient shot-making, Vit Krejčí lit up the night with seven threes off the bench, and Jalen Johnson nearly posted a triple-double as the Hawks controlled a tricky road game and rolled to a 115–98 win.

Atlanta didn’t just outshoot the Pelicans — the Hawks tightened defensively in the second quarter, forced turnovers, and completely flipped the momentum after a sluggish start. The middle stretch of the game looked like some of their most composed basketball of the season.

Porziņģis anchored the offense. Krejčí changed the entire rhythm of the game. Johnson dictated pace, rebounded, and made plays all over the floor. Even Dyson Daniels gave them strong minutes in his return to New Orleans.

Given all that…

What are your top takeaways from Hawks 115, Pelicans 98? Is it Porziņģis’ efficiency, Krejčí’s breakout shooting, Johnson’s all-around growth — or something deeper about how this team is starting to play on the road?
