Hawks 88, Mavericks 87: Jeff Teague tallied 25 points and six assists and Al Horford collected 17 points and 12 rebounds and hit the game-winner with 4.2 seconds left as host Atlanta rallied from a 17-point deficit in the second half.

Paul Millsap added 15 points and Lou Williams scored 12 for the Hawks, who snapped a season-high three-game losing streak. DeMarre Carroll contributed nine points and 10 rebounds for the Hawks, who outscored Dallas 23-2 in fast-break points.

Atlanta led by as many as five in the first quarter before missing nine straight from the field while Dallas broke it open with a 16-0 run spanning the first two quarters. The Mavericks spread it out to 53-39 at halftime and withstood the Hawks' early surge in the third to take a 75-64 advantage into the final stanza.

Teague scored nine points in the fourth quarter and Millsap buried a 3-pointer from the top of the arc to pull Atlanta within 87-86. Both teams missed shots before Horford drained a 19-footer to give the Hawks their first lead since 3:14 left in the first quarter, and Dallas' Vince Carter misfired at the buzzer.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Hawks SF Kyle Korver (bruised ribs) missed a second consecutive game. Korver needs to hit a 3-pointer in his next game to match Dana Barros' NBA record of 89 consecutive games with at least one. … Calderon left in the third quarter with a right ankle injury. X-rays were negative, but he did not return. … The Mavericks dropped to 9-1 when leading after three quarters.
