SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) The Kings broke up a close game with a 13-2 run early in the fourth quarter.
The game marked the return of Hawks guard Mike Bibby to Sacramento. The Hawks obtained Bibby from the Kings last weekend, and he scored 17 points playing against his former teammates.
Bibby has struggled with his shot this season, but that wasn't the case against the Kings. He made four 3-pointers and had three assists in 31 minutes.
Josh Childress scored 18 points for Atlanta, while Marvin Williams had 13 points and Joe Johnson had 12. Al Horford added 12 points and 12 rebounds before fouling out late in the game, and Josh Smith added 11 points.
Ron Artest led the Kings with 29 points and Kevin Martin had 26.
The Hawks are off tonight. They'll continue their West Coast swing tomorrow night at Golden State.
