ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 Nickeil Alexander-Walker<\/a> scored 27 points and the Atlanta Hawks shot 8 of 12 on 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to survive a late surge from Sacramento and beat the Kings 123-113 on Saturday night in coach Quin Snyder\u2019s 500th career victory.<\/p>\n

Jalen Johnson had 26 points and 10 assists and Jock Landale had 19 points and 13 rebounds to help Atlanta to its 15th win in its last 17 games. It was Johnson\u2019s 44th double-double of the season and Landale\u2019s first since his debut with Atlanta on Feb. 5. <\/p>\n

The Kings, who have lost their first three games of a four-game road trip, fell to 19-56. DeMar DeRozan led Sacramento with 22 points. Maxime Raynaud had 18 points and 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n

After a back-and-forth first half during which Atlanta trailed by as many as seven points, the Hawks went on a 26-8 run in the final 5:54 of the second quarter to lead 66-54 at halftime. Atlanta held its lead the entire third quarter.<\/p>\n

But Sacramento bounced back to tie it at 97 with 7:56 left. The Hawks went on a 26-16 run to end the game, with 18 of those points coming on 3-pointers.<\/p>\n

The Hawks were without Dyson Daniels (toe), Onyeka Okongwu (finger) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee injury management) in the team\u2019s second game in two days. All three played in the Hawks\u2019 Friday night loss<\/a> to the Celtics. <\/p>\n

Landale and Mouhamed Gueye started in place of Daniels and Okongwu.<\/p>\n

Russell Westbrook (toe, injury management), Domantas Sabonis (knee), Zach Lavine (finger), Drew Eubanks (thumb), D\u2019Andre Hunter (eye) and Keegan Murray (ankle) remained out for the Kings. Sabonis, Lavine, Eubanks and Hunter will miss the rest of the season, while Westbrook does not have a timetable for return.<\/p>\n

Kings: Play at Brooklyn on Sunday night.<\/p>\n
