ATLANTA, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- Devin Harris' 33 points and 10 assists Saturday night led the New Jersey Nets to a 119-107 win over the Atlanta Hawks.

Vince Carter scored 29 points with four rebounds and five assists, Ryan Anderson scored a season-high 17 points with five rebounds, Jarvis Hayes had 14 points and three key steals and Keyon Dooling added 10 points and five assists for the Nets -- who stopped a three-game slide with Friday's 115-108 victory and swept the home-and-home weekend series.

The Nets led after every period and slowly pulled away from their 55-50 halftime advantage.

Atlanta was led by Joe Johnson's 31 points and five assists. Ronald Murray and Marvin Williams both scored 14 points, while forward Al Horford added 12 points and six rebounds for the Hawks, who have lost three straight after winning their first six games to start the season.
