Jalen Johnson Posts Second Triple-Double, Extends NBA-Best Assist Streak
Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson recorded his second triple-double of the season on Friday, tallying 29 points (9-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 8-12 FT), 12 rebounds, 12 assists, and two steals in 39 minutes during a 130-123 win over the Cavaliers. Johnson, who bounced back from a seven-point, seven-rebound, seven-assist performance on Tuesday, also extended his active streak of consecutive games with at least seven assists to 10 outings, the longest in the NBA and by a forward since LeBron James earlier this year.
