Hawks 82, Wizards 50

Atlanta ran off 32 unanswered points in the second half against a Washington team struggling to learn a new offense.

"Strange things happen in summer league," said Wizards assistant coach Mike O'Koren, who was an assistant in New Jersey under new Washington coach Eddie Jordan.

Rookie Boris Diaw of France had four points, six assists, two steals and five rebounds in 24 minutes for the Hawks, who forced 24 turnovers. Their 32-0 run turned a 35-31 advantage into a 67-31 lead.

"He passed the ball very well, found the open man and made the right basketball play depending on what presented itself in the game," coach Terry Stotts said of Diaw, the 21st overall pick in last month's draft.

Washington forward Kwame Brown, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2001 draft, had eight turnovers, eight rebounds and 10 points. Wizards center Etan Thomas blocked seven shots.
