SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Andrew Wiggins scored 27 points, Stephen Curry added 23 points and eight assists and the Golden State Warriors beat the Atlanta Hawks 120-97 on Wednesday night.

Trayce Jackson-Davis finished with 14 points and 11 rebounds, and Buddy Hield contributed 11 points off the bench.

Jalen Johnson led the Hawks with 15 points and 14 rebounds, and Trae Young also had a double-double with 12 points and 11 assists.

Draymond Green, who had made multiple 3-pointers in each of the past five games, went 0 for 4 from deep and had nine points, nine assists and seven rebounds for the Warriors.

Green and Wiggins each had two blocked shots.

Hawks: Atlanta hasn't won on the Warriors home floor since a 124-108 win on March 26, 2021.

Warriors: Lindy Waters III scored 10 points in place of De'Anthony Melton, who will undergo season-ending surgery on his left knee for a partially torn ACL.

Jonathan Kuminga stole the ball from Bogdan Bogdanovic with 4:36 left in the opening quarter and found Hield for a transition dunk. Kuminga assisted on a Hield 3-pointer less than a minute later that put the Warriors ahead 29-17 and Atlanta called timeout. Golden State led 41-22 after the first.

Atlanta's 11 first-half turnovers contributed to 15 points for the Warriors, including Andrew Wiggins' layup to beat the halftime buzzer, and put Golden State ahead 67-42 at the break.

The Hawks will wrap up a four-game trip Friday night at Chicago, while the Warriors also play Friday at New Orleans.
