Kevin Martin, who was playing with bruised right wrist, had 29 points and 11 rebounds and Jason Thompson added 22 points and 12 rebounds for the Kings (1-3).
Martin had 25 points going into the fourth quarter, but the Kings, who were ahead by four, allowed the Hawks to surge back to a 93-92 lead after Bibby made a 3-pointer with less than 10 minutes to play.
Johnson's jumper with 3:20 left extended the lead to seven.
Martin finally scored his first basket of the fourth on Sacramento's next possession, but it was too late. Crawford answered with a 3-pointer that put the game away.
