ATLANTA, Jan. 19 (UPI) -- Tony Parker fired in 23 points and Matt Bonner came off the bench to add 17 more Saturday in the San Antonio Spurs' 98-93 victory over Atlanta.

Parker also dished off 12 assists, while Kawhi Leonard and Tiago Splitter chipped in with 14 points each as the Spurs broke a three-game road losing streak.

They won without the services of veteran Tim Duncan, who was rested during the second of back-to-back games.

The skidding Hawks, meanwhile, lost for the eighth time in 10 games on a day they were told guard Lou Williams would miss the rest of the season with a torn knee ligament.

Josh Smith led Atlanta with 21 points and Kyle Korver added 19.
