Atlanta opened a 16-point lead inside two quarters and never surrendered it again, winning 120-105 in the capital behind six three-pointers from Nickeil Alexander-Walker and a double-double from Onyeka Okongwu.

A 13-0 run that arrived all at once

Alexander-Walker hit six three-pointers after sinking a career-high-tying nine in Monday's 104-102 win at Indiana, and this time he needed only one quarter to make the difference.

In the wider picture, Johnson missed his second consecutive game with a sprained left ankle, which pushed more minutes onto the bench unit and gave Kingston Flemings and Zuby Ejiofor bigger roles than their season averages suggest.

Onyeka Okongwu contributed 14 points and 16 rebounds, while CJ McCollum and Aaron Wiggins scored 15 points each to cover the absence of All-Star forward Jalen Johnson.

The game broke open on a 13-0 run that began at the first-quarter buzzer: Asa Newell's tip-in, two transition baskets from Ejiofor and a Flemings runner inside ninety seconds.

Atlanta's quarter scores of 37 and 31 produced a 68-point first half, and the game-high lead of 16 was built before the break.

Young's 18 and the four-point-play answer

Young's step-back three cut the deficit to 83-79 with a quarter still to play, the closest Washington came after the second-quarter collapse.

Anthony Davis had 26 points and 10 rebounds for the Wizards and Kyshawn George added 25, but the trio could not stop a third quarter that yielded only 24 points.

Corey Kispert, acquired with the trade that sent Young away, hit a four-point play immediately afterwards, and the game never got closer than six points again.

Washington conceded 52 points after the break while scoring 44 of its own, and the lead never came back inside six points once Kispert answered Young.

In the wider picture, Washington sit at 4-4 with a 2-2 record at home, and the last twelve minutes produced only 20 points after a 29-point second quarter that had briefly kept the building interested.

Nine games in, what each side takes away

The two teams close their home-and-home set on Friday night in Atlanta, this time as an NBA Cup tilt that arrives only three days after this result.

Atlanta will want the second game without needing six three-pointers from one guard again, particularly if Johnson's ankle keeps him out of the rotation.

The Wizards have now played nine games with Young as the primary creator and Davis as the second read, and the gap between halves is where the season is being decided.

In the wider picture, nothing about this result is fatal for either side after nine games, but the Hawks have played two straight games without their best forward and still found a way to win both, which is the more encouraging data point of the week.

The margin, in the end, was the second quarter: a 13-0 stretch and 31 points, against 29 before the break and 20 after it.

Editor's take: Atlanta's depth is the story here. Two games without Jalen Johnson and the Hawks still found 26 points from a guard and a double-double from a center.
