This looks like a good spot to back the Atlanta Hawks to bounce back from a 117-109 loss to Miami as a 7-point favorite. They had won five of their past seven games but have failed to cover the spread in their last three, which makes me think they're "due" for a big night here against a struggling Detroit team.

The Pistons are coming into the game on an eight-game losing streak, through which they are 2-6 ATS. The Hawks are 3-2 on the road, and the Pistons are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

The Pistons are 10-23-1 ATS in their last 34 games as a home underdog of 0.5-4.5.

Atlanta star Trae Young is dealing with a personal matter, and it is unknown if he will play. If he doesn't, I expect the rest of the team to step up.

3* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS.
