[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The San Antonio Spurs and Atlanta Hawks meet Sunday in the 2024 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. Tip-off from Thomas & Mack Center is set for 8 p.m. ET (ESPN2/ESPN+). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Spurs vs. Hawks odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Spurs selected G Stephon Castle, who should be active Sunday, at No. 4 in the 2024 NBA Draft and G Rob Dillingham at No. 8, immediately sending him to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Castle dropped 22 points on 8-of-21 shooting in their 83-77 win over the Portland Trail Blazers Saturday. San Antonio was 1-2 in its 3 California Classic games earlier in the month, having lost 97-65 to the Charlotte Hornets and 85-59 to the Sacramento Kings 1 before picking up an 89-67 win over Team China.

The Hawks opened their summer league play with a 94-88 loss to the Washington Wizards Friday in a battle that featured the top 2 picks in the draft. Atlanta drafted F Zaccharie Risacher with the No. 1 overall pick. He ended his summer league debut with 18 points and 3 triples. The Hawks only have 1 player with multiple years in the NBA, F Dylan Windler. Atlanta didn’t play in either the Salt Lake City Summer League or California Classic.

Spurs at Hawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawks 89, Spurs 83

Moneyline

PASS.

In all 5 games these teams have combined to play in summer league, the closing spread has been higher than 3 points. Take the Spurs on the moneyline or the Hawks on the spread, although the latter is suggested here.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS -3 (-108).

The Hawks jumped out to a 9-point lead after the 1st quarter Friday, but struggled shooting, going 11-of-39 from deep and just 21-of-35 from the free-throw line. Those should both see improvements Sunday, especially the latter.

Atlanta will have a major size advantage, which should bode well for it on the glass. Given San Antonio snatched 15 offensive boards against Portland, having Risacher in the middle will help. Atlanta started 5 forwards against Washington as well.

San Antonio struggled immensely in the California Classic and will be on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. Considering the size and rest advantage, take HAWKS -3 (-108).

Over/Under

BET OVER 170.5 (-110).

Both teams like to run, and they’re going to be shooting a bunch of 3s Sunday. The Hawks and Spurs both tossed up 39 triples in their 1st summer league appearance. The Spurs connected on 12, while the Hawks hit 11.

As the players get more comfortable, especially since this is the 1st NBA action for most, they should start to improve from deep. The Hawks scored 23 or more points in 3 of 4 quarters, while the Spurs scored 22 or more in 3 of 4. The consistency should be there in the offensive sets and roster depth.

Take OVER 170.5 (-110).
