Trae Young scored 25 points and posted his 41st double-double of the season to help the Atlanta Hawks defeat the visiting Golden State Warriors 124-115 on Saturday.

The Warriors played without leading scorer Stephen Curry (24.2 points per game), who sustained a left pelvic contusion after taking a hard fall on Thursday against Toronto.

Young was 9-for-15 from the floor with 10 assists. Georges Niang came off the bench to score 23 points, and Onyeka Okongwu added 22 points and 12 rebounds for his 22nd double-double.

Atlanta (34-36) has won two straight and six of its last eight and holds a 1 1/2 game lead over Orlando in the race for the No. 7 spot in the Eastern Conference.

The Warriors were led by Jimmy Butler III’s 25 points and eight assists. Moses Moody scored 20 and Brandin Podziemski added 19 points and eight rebounds.

Golden State (41-30) saw its two-game winning streak end. The Warriors hold a half-game lead over the L.A. Clippers and Minnesota Timberwolves for the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference.

The win gave Atlanta a split of the two-game season series. The Hawks have won six straight games against the Warriors in Atlanta.

Curry was not with the team to start its six-game road trip. He will be re-evaluated on Monday. The Warriors are 5-4 when playing without Curry this season.

Atlanta shot 65.4 percent in the first quarter, built a 20-point lead in the first 10 minutes and had a 40-23 lead at the end of the period.

The Hawks led 69-57 at halftime, but the Warriors scored the first six points of the third quarter to get within six points. They got as close as seven again midway through the period before Atlanta closed on a 19-9 run and took a 98-81 lead into the fourth quarter.

The Hawks revealed that backup center Clint Capela would miss 3-4 weeks with ligament damage in his left hand.
