After the Atlanta Hawks trailed the New Orleans Pelicans by as many as 19 on Wednesday night, a 3-pointer by Taurean Price tied the game at 70.

The Hawks chipped their way back with a 17-3 run in the third quarter that eventually led to Prince’s huge shot with 1:05 left in the third quarter.

Prince recorded seven points, one rebound and one block in the Hawks’ 94-93 win over the Pelicans.

The Hawks will host the Chicago Bulls on Saturday at 5:30 p.m.
