A slow start to the season turned into Washington’s best November in 29 years.

John Wall had 26 points and 12 assists, Trevor Ariza scored 24 points and made five 3-pointers, and the Wizards beat the Atlanta Hawks 108-101 on Saturday night.

The Wizards lost their first three games and seven of their first nine, but have now won six of their last eight. They won 8 games in November for the first time since 1984.
