Of the two teams, Atlanta is the team playing the better basketball and they are doing it on both ends of the court. The Hawks are eighth in scoring at 116.3 points a game and 20th in points allowed at 116.2 points. Charlotte is just 25th in scoring at 111.8 points per game and 28th in points allowed at 118.7 points. Those two factors are the reason that Charlotte has lost seven in a row and has not covered in six in a row. The Hornets are not a great shooting team as they are next to last in field goal shooting percentage and last in three-point shooting percentage. The Hawks have covered the spread in five of the last seven overall and in six of the last nine played on the road. Charlotte is averaging less than 110 points over the last three games and Atlanta has not allowed 110 points in their last three games. Atlanta is better on both ends of the court right now and will take their offense over the Hornets.

Play on Atlanta.
