Taurean Prince scored 16 but the Hawks lost to the Bulls 97-85 Saturday night at State Farm Arena.

Hawks top draft pick Trae Young, who entered the game leading NBA rookies with 21.5 points per game, scored 13 but hit only 3-of-12 shots from the field. Young was 0-for-6 on 3-pointers and had four assists and five turnovers.

Dewayne Dedmon had 13 points and 13 rebounds for the Hawks (2-3).

Zach LaVine scored 27 points for Chicago, which went 7-of-10 from 3-point range in the fourth quarter.

Jabari Parker scored half of his 18 points in the fourth quarter for the Bulls, who struggled from long range for the first three quarters, making 5-of-23 from beyond the arc. Rookie Wendell Carter Jr. had 10 points and 10 rebounds while playing his first NBA game in his hometown.

Both teams were cold in the first half. The Hawks led 44-41 at the break while shooting 26.2 percent from the field (11-of-42), including a 3-for-15 performance in the paint.

The Hawks asked for a moment of silence before the game for the victims of Saturday's shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, where a gunman killed 11 people.

The Hawks play at the 76ers Monday night at 7 p.m. in the first of back-to-back road games.
