Hawks 108, Cavaliers 89: Kyle Korver set an NBA record with his 90th consecutive game with at least one 3-pointer and Al Horford collected 22 points and nine rebounds as host Atlanta blitzed Cleveland.

Paul Millsap tallied 16 points and 14 rebounds for the Hawks, who have won back-to-back games for the first time since Nov. 20-22. Jeff Teague and Lou Williams each added 13 points as Atlanta had seven players score in double figures.

Dion Waiters scored a season-high 30 points on 13-of-20 shooting and Andrew Bynum added 20 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Cavaliers, who dropped to 1-10 on the road. Leading scorer Kyrie Irving was held scoreless for the first time in his career, going 0-for-9 from the field and 0-for-3 from the foul line in 20 minutes.

Korver's record-breaking shot came with 5:28 left in the first quarter, as Millsap drove the lane and kicked it out to Korver on the right wing and he knocked it down to break a tie with Dana Barros. Millsap ended the quarter with a bang, swishing a heave from beyond half-court at the buzzer for a 37-20 advantage.

The Hawks opened the third quarter with a 14-5 run, stretching it to 77-48 on Teague's 3-pointer with just under seven minutes left. The Cavaliers clawed within 12 in the fourth quarter but didn't get any closer as Atlanta coasted to the finish.

GAME NOTEBOOK: The Hawks have topped 100 points in four straight games after failing to do so in their previous seven. … Horford has scored in double figures in every game this season. … Irving had not been held in single digits since scoring four points at Philadelphia on April 14.
