ATLANTA -- After losing 14 of 15 games, the Atlanta Hawks seem to be getting their mojo back. Cheap Houston Rockets Jerseys . Paul Millsap says its been a long time coming. "Yeah, were due for it," he said. "We got a few (loose) balls. We got a few calls. Things just went our way in foul situations when its been the other team getting breaks." Millsap had 24 points and 11 rebounds, Jeff Teague added 15 points and 10 assists, and the Atlanta Hawks rallied for their third straight win with a 97-92 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night. Kenneth Faried finished with 25 points and Wilson Chandler scored 12 for the Nuggets, who were coming off a dramatic victory Friday at two-time defending champion Miami. Kyle Korver, who hit a pair of free throws in the closing seconds to make it 96-92, had 18 points and Pero Antic added 16 for Atlanta. Denver erased a 21-point deficit in the third quarter to take its first lead at 81-80 lead on Darrell Arthurs two free throws with 7:10 remaining. But Teague hit a 3 with 3:59 remaining that put the Hawks up 89-87 and followed with a long jumper to make it 91-89 at the 1:51 mark. "Every team has big wins," Arthur said in reference to the victory at Miami. "(With) the good teams, its consistent, and we havent been consistent all year. We can beat anybody. We just dont." Ty Lawson, Denvers leading scorer this season, handed out 11 assists, but went 0 for 12 from the field and finished with just two points. Before winning Monday at Utah, the Hawks had dropped from third to eighth in the Eastern Conference during their 1-14 stretch. The Hawks are 3 1/2 games ahead of New York for the eighth and final Eastern Conference playoff spot. Atlantas three-game winning streak is its longest since beating the Jazz on Dec. 20. "We knew they were going to make a run, but I think our mindset was just going back to being an aggressive team," said DeMarre Carroll, who had 11 points, 10 rebounds, four steals and three assists for the Hawks. "I think our biggest thing is we just have to keep staying aggressive for the entire game instead of just for 36 minutes or 40 minutes." Faried gave the Nuggets a 92-91 lead on a three-point play, but they trailed the rest of the way after Antic hit a long jumper over Faried from the left corner and Wilson Chandler missed a 3 that gave Atlanta possession with 30 seconds to go. The Nuggets, who had erased a 14-point deficit Friday in a 102-97 victory at Miami, had won two straight and four of six. After Korvers 3 made it 16-3, Denver coach Brian Shaw called timeout, and the Nuggets went on a 23-15 run, but they trailed 53-37 on Teagues three-point play with 12 seconds left before halftime. Atlanta went ahead by 21 early in the third on Antics 3, but Denver cut the lead to seven on Foyes 3 at the 5-minute mark, and the Nuggets only trailed by six entering the fourth. "Just a case of too little, too late," Shaw said. "We were real lethargic in the first half. We needed to play the way we played the end of the third quarter (and during the) fourth quarter from the start of the game." NOTES: Antics long jumper with 41.8 seconds remaining was originally scored as a 3, but officials changed the call after watching a replay. ... Carrolls double-double was the second of his career. ... J.J. Hickson scored 12 points for Denver. ... The Nuggets outscored Atlanta 44-26 in the paint and 39-13 off the bench, but Atlanta converted 21 turnovers into 25 points. ... The Hawks have won five of six at home against Denver and are 20-3 since 1989-90 versus the Nuggets in Atlanta. ... Atlanta, the NBA assists leader, handed out 25.

MLS journalists and experts have ranked the divisions best 24 players under the age of 24, taking into account technical ability, physical attributes and soccer IQ to draw up a hot-list of talent previously headed by Newcastles DeAndre Yedlin.From a prodigious English forward whos been receiving plenty of praise from Frank Lampard to the midfielder likened to Stokes Joe Allen, we give you the lowdown on the youngsters to watch...

Aged 21 and into just the second season of his professional career, hes accumulated 30 appearances in 2016.23. Tommy Redding - Orlando CityLabelled by Orlando Citys former coach Adrian Heath as a potential top, top defender in MLS in July, the 19-year-old centre-back has shown to be more than capable of matching the physicality of the league and is comfortable with passing out from the back. 22. Sean Davis - New York Red BullsThe 23-year-old box-to-box midfielder ranks third in the pecking order of New York Red Bulls midfielders. But recent performances, including an impressive August with two goals and two assists, has put the pressure on Dax McCarty and Felipe to perform. Davis real breakthrough may happen during the play-offs, which start later this month. New York Red Bulls midfielder Sean Davis (R) scored against Chelsea in a 2015 International Champions Cup match 21. Cristian Higuita - Orlando CityConsidered one of best holding midfielders - and ball winners - in Major League Soccer, Higuita is one of the reasons why Kaka can have a free attacking role for Orlando. The 22-year-old has been heavily linked with AC Milan in recent months and is on the fringes of Colombias national team. Orlando Citys tough-tackling Cristian Higuita - seen battling with Chicago Fires Michael de Leeuw - has helped Kaka thrive 20. Matt Polster - Chicago FirePolster was drafted by Chicago in 2015 and finished the season third in the MLS Rookie of the Year award rankings.

Jordan Allen - Real Salt LakeA versatile midfielder adept at playing on either wing or centrally, Allen has struggled with injury throughout his short career. But the USA U20 winger has shown glimpses of quality during his time in the league, and could become one of MLSs brightest prospects should he find consistency.15. Justen Glad - Real Salt LakeGlad has started in every position across the defensive line with the only question mark over his physical presence. The 19-year-old currently weights 145 pounds but if he can bulk up, could develop his game yet further.14. Luciano Acosta - D.C. UnitedA loanee from Boca Juniors, Acosta is one of Major League Soccers most technically gifted players. The 22-year-old has three goals and ten assists in 30 appearances from a withdrawn forward position.

Walker Zimmerman of FC Dallas beats Colorado Rapids Kevin Doyle - once of Wolves and Reading - to the ball 10. Lucas Melano - Portland TimbersSpeed and athleticism make Melano a dangerous winger for the MLS Cup champions. His end product can be questionable, but his intelligence on the ball and the timing of his runs make him a frequent threat.9. Jesse Gonzalez - FC DallasGonzalez started the season as the first choice goalkeeper for high fliers Dallas, and is in weekly direct competition for the starters spot with the vastly more experienced Chris Seitz. Aged just 21, Gonzalez is comfortably one of the best young goalkeepers in the league FC Dallas goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez denies Jozy Altidore 8. Carlos Gruezo - FC DallasThe Ecuador international traded Stuttgart for Dallas in January and has shown excellent technical and defensive ability to be considered one of the leagues best young players.

Wil Trapp - Columbus CrewA homegrown American holding midfielder with a playing style similar to that of Joe Allen, Trapp has experienced a frustrating season at an underperforming Columbus, but has still shown his eye for a pass and ability to create from deep positions.

Kekuta Manneh of the Vancouver Whitecaps takes on Montreal Impacts Donny Toia 4. Kellyn Acosta - FC DallasAcosta stands out most from MLSs all-round central midfielders under the age of 24. As well as his shooting, passing and tackling ability, his pace makes him adept at playing out wide if needs be and he always covers plenty of ground. Acosta is already a US international and looks set to have a bright future with the national team.3. Jordan Morris - Seattle SoundersBefore Morris had even set foot in Seattle before the start of this season, the hype in American soccer circles surrounding the 21-year-old was clear to see. The US national team forward was capped while still at college and now leads the Sounders with 12 goals in 30 appearances in just his first professional season.
