Spin: Johnson stuffed the stat sheet and became the first Hawks player in franchise history to record a triple-double in a single half, albeit in a losing effort. The rising star tied his career high in rebounds and set a new one in assists while also finishing as the team's third-leading scorer. Friday's contest marked his third triple-double in just 21 regular-season games, matching Doc Rivers (1987-88) for the most in a single season in franchise history. Additionally, Johnson has now scored at least 20 points in four straight games and 16 times on the campaign.
