Hawks unable to keep pace in loss to Celtics

The Atlanta Hawks were unable to follow their victory in Washington with another victory, falling 113-103 against the Boston Celtics at TD Garden on Sunday night.

Trae Young led the way with 33 points, while Bogdan Bogdanovic added 23 points on 7-of-10 shooting from three. For the Celtics, Jayson Tatum scored 34 points with Jaylen Brown adding 21 points.

On the second night of a back-to-back — and fresh off the news that Jalen Johnson would miss the next 4-to-6 weeks — the Hawks faced a tough prospect heading into Boston, even if the hosts were without Kristaps Pozingis and Jrue Holiday.
