Charlotte (43:16) - Atlanta (29:29) 138:144
The Hornets hit a season-high 20 three-pointers and scored the second-highest number of points in club history in one game, after 158 against Indiana last season, en route to snapping a seven-game losing streak.
Four players scored over 20 points: Lamelo Ball had 30 and 15 assists, Terry Rozier added 29, Gordon Hayward contributed 26 and 8 assists and PJ Washington 22 and 7 rebounds.
In the ranks of the Hawks, who stopped after two victories, Trey Young stood out with 25 points and 14 assists, with Clint Capela registering 22 and 7 rebounds.
Cleveland (22:38) - San Antonio (44:14) 109:117
The Spurs made noises of trying to make a comeback in the fourth quarter, after trailing by more than 20 points, but in the end continued the trend of tanking and equaled the club record from the 1988/89 season, with 13 straight losses.
The main person responsible for this is Donovan Mitchell, who bombed 41 points with the help of 6 of 13 for three, on the way to the seventh consecutive victory of the Cubs who received 17 points and 11 rebounds from Jarrett Allen.
Caldon Johnson with 25 was the leading point provider for San Antonio.
Indiana (34:25) - Utah (30:29) 123:117
In a meeting between two teams that are in a bad time, Jordan Clarkson and Auri Markkanen scored 29 points each and decided in favor of the Jazz, who came after four losses in the previous five games.
Indiana, on the other hand, has not won five games in a row.
Kelly Olynyk and Colin Sexton added 18 points each to the winner, Tyrese Halliburton stood out with 30 and 12 assists for the Pacers.

Philadelphia (19:37) - Houston (44:13) 104:123
Third consecutive victory for the Sixers, sixth consecutive loss for the Rockets.
James Harden led the victory over the former with 28 points and 10 assists, in addition to 4 of 9 shooting from outside the arc.
Tyrese Maxey was also excellent with 26 points, Joel Embiid added 23 in Philly's easy trip.
Jaylen Green scored 29 for Houston.
Miami (26:32) - Denver (18:40) 112:108
The Western leader became the first on this coast to reach 40 wins this season, and the second to do so in the entire league after Boston.
Nikola Jokic met the team with the best defense in the paint area, and also spent another day at the office against it: the Serbian giant had 27 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists, when the Nuggets broke Miami's three-game winning streak.
Michael Porter Jr. contributed 17 points.
The Heat received 24, 10 rebounds and 9 assists from Jimmy Balter, Max Strauss scored 23.
New York (27:32) - Brooklyn (24:33) 106:124
The Knicks had 0 wins and 15 losses against teams with Ben Simmons on their roster.
They have also lost all nine previous meetings with Brooklyn.
But both of those streaks ended tonight, as New York beat its cross-town rival for the first time since January 2020, thanks in large part to Jaylen Brunson's 40-point performance.
Josh Hart scored 27 off the bench, and Julius Randle added 18 along with 10 rebounds.
Spencer Dinwiddie, with 28, stood out for the crumbling Nets, who recorded their fourth loss in five games.
