Dejounte Murray hit two free throws with 1.3 seconds left to give the Atlanta Hawks a 126-125 win over visiting Orlando to end the Magic’s six-game winning streak.

Atlanta led by 12 points with 3:05 left to play, but Orlando scored 13 straight and took the lead on a driving layup by Markelle Fultz with 3.8 seconds left. The Hawks inbounded the ball to Murray, who dribbled to the corner and was fouled by Paolo Banchero. Orlando was unable to get off a final shot before time expired.

Trae Young led the Hawks with 37 points. He was 11-for-22 from the floor, 3-for-7 on 3-pointers and 12-for-12 at the line. Young added 13 assists for his 15th double-double of the season and his 56th career game with 30 points and 10 assists.

The Hawks got two starters back in the lineup when Murray and John Collins both returned from sprained left ankles and were among the team’s seven players in double figures. Murray scored 17 and Collins had 12 points.

Orlando was led by Fultz, who finished with 24 points and nine assists. Franz Wagner scored 19 points and Banchero had 18 points and seven assists.

The win gives the Hawks a 3-1 victory in the season series and avenged the 135-124 loss to the Magic on Wednesday.

The Hawks led 34-27 after one quarter and led by as many as 11 in the second quarter. The Magic went on a 9-0 run late and cut the lead to one. Orlando drew to within one once again on Banchero’s 3-pointer with 15.9 seconds only to have Collins score with 3.7 seconds left to give Atlanta a 68-65 lead at halftime.

Orlando cut the lead to three points after Moritz Wagner hit a pair of free throws at 8:44 in the third quarter, but could not stop Young, who scored 17 points and gave Atlanta a 104-94 lead going into the final quarter.

Atlanta played without center Clint Capela, who missed his second straight game with a right calf strain.
