ATLANTA -- The Orlando Magic didn't look a thing like the team that was next to last in the NBA with an average 94.8 points per game coming into their Tuesday night contest against the Atlanta Hawks.

The Magic hit 15 3-pointers while shooting 58.6 percent overall, and Orlando got 62 points from reserves in snapping a three-game losing streak with a 131-120 victory over the Hawks.

Serge Ibaka scored 29 points, and Elfrid Payton led the bench effort for the Magic (11-15) with career bests of 26 points and 14 assists.

"We shot the ball really well," coach Frank Vogel said. "We're continuing to try to improve our passing and make the extra pass. That improves your shooting percentage."

The Magic, spreading the floor with center Nikola Vucevic out, had 36 assists in scoring more than 100 points for only the eighth time this season.

Evan Fournier scored 23 points, while Jodie Meeks and Jeff Green had 20 and 16 points off the bench, respectively.

"We really needed this win," said Meeks, who was 4 for 6 from the 3-point arc and 7 for 10 overall. "The bench came through and I was happy to knock down some shots."

Payton made all three of his 3-point attempts and was 9 for 12 overall after a couple rough shooting nights.

"He cares a lot," Vogel said. "He gets a lot of criticism, but he's a gamer and I'm happy to see him come back and perform the way he did."

Dwight Howard had 20 points and 16 rebounds for the Hawks (12-13), who took a step back again after snapping a seven-game losing streak with consecutive victories.

"Offensively we were OK, but that was way too many points to give up," said Kyle Korver, the only productive bench player for the Hawks with 12 points.

Dennis Schroder had 19 points and 13 assists, but the Hawks couldn't slow down the Magic.

"We followed the game plan and we adjusted during the game. We did everything we could, I think," Schroder said. "They hit a lot of shots. We just have to shake their hands and go to the next game."

The Hawks' used a 15-2 run early in the third quarter to take a lead, but the Magic led 99-96 going into the final quarter thanks to a 3-point basket by Meeks just before the buzzer.

Then the Magic quickly put the game away, outscoring the Hawks 17-7 to start the fourth as they continued to bomb away from 3-point range.

It was the third straight victory for the Magic over the Hawks after losing 17 of the previous 20 meetings.

The Magic, who didn't commit a turnover until the final minute of the second quarter, led 72-62 at intermission on 59.2 percent shooting.

The point total was the best by seven points in a half for Orlando this season and the most scored against the Hawks by six points in a first half.

Fournier had 17 points and Ibaka scored 16 in the first half for the Magic, who had 21 assists on their 29 baskets.

Howard, who missed only one first-half shot, had a double-double with 17 points and 11 rebounds by halftime as the Hawks scored 20 second-chance points.
