Takeaways Hawks: The Hawks had 10 steals in the first quarter and finished with a season-high 22. Atlanta's previous high was 16.
Raptors: Center Jakob Poeltl scored 13 points in his return after missing the past four games because of a strained left groin.
Key moment Atlanta turned a six-point halftime lead into a 22-point cushion after three quarters thanks to an explosive 40-point third quarter, led by 12 points from Young.
Key stat Toronto turned the ball over on its first five possessions of the game and six of the first seven. The Raptors had as many miscues (10) as made baskets in the first quarter. They finished with a season-worst 31 turnovers.
