Fall two for Atlanta! In Washington, the Hawks conceded their second loss of the season. They lost 122-111 after a meeting they never mastered.

Washington led 64-55 at the break before widening a 20-point lead (84-64) to pick up its fourth victory in five games.
The evening was marked by the first defeats of the season for Golden State and Chicago, which lost at home.
The Warriors were beaten 104-101 by Memphis, the Bulls 104-103 by the Knicks. Victorious 122-91 in Houston,
Utah remains, therefore, the only undefeated team in the league.
