Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Lakers vs. Atlanta Hawks odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Los Angeles Lakers and Atlanta Hawks meet Wednesday in the 2024 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. Tip-off from Thomas & Mack Center is set for 9:30 p.m. ET (ESPN/ESPN+). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Lakers vs. Hawks odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Lakers kicked off their 2024 NBA Summer League with a 99-80 loss Friday to the Houston Rockets, who are led by No. 3 overall pick G Reed Sheppard. L.A. followed that up with an 88-74 loss to the Boston Celtics Monday. F Dalton Knecht, who L.A. selected at No. 17 in June, led the way with 19 points but was just 7-for-21 from the field. G Bronny James finished 1-for-5 in 25 minutes.

Atlanta, which didn’t play in either the Salt Lake City Summer League or California Classic, opened its summer league play with a 94-88 loss to the Washington Wizards Friday. Atlanta’s opener featured this year’s top 2 picks in Hawks F Zaccharie Risacher, who went No. 1 overall, and Wizards C Alex Sarr. Risacher ended his summer league debut with 18 points and 3 triples. The Hawks then lost to the Spurs 79-76 Sunday. The 19-year-old foward ended with 11 points on 1-of-7 shooting.

Lakers at Hawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawks 83, Lakers 76

Moneyline

PASS.

The Lakers to pull off the upset is the only playable side on the moneyline, but that doesn’t make much sense given it has lost both its summer league performances by double figures.

The Hawks (-162) have lost both as well but have looked more competitive and should be able to win and cover here. Avoid their moneyline play, though, as it is too expensive to take here.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS -3 (-114).

The Hawks have competed well throughout the summer league and lost to the Spurs by 3 despite their No. 1 overall pick shooting horribly from the field. San Antonio is undefeated in the summer league, while the Lakers are coming off a 14-point loss to the 1-1 Celtics.

Los Angeles hasn’t put it all together and doesn’t have an efficient, go-to scoring option. None of its 5 starters shot over 43% from the field in its loss to Boston. Considering how both teams have played so far in Vegas, take HAWKS -3 (-108).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 172.5 (-110).

Considering the Lakers’ inefficiency, there isn’t much reason to think they’ll top 80 points here, having scored or gone south of that figure in both games prior. The Hawks have scored 88 and 76, as well, so they haven’t been lighting up the scoreboard either.

Atlanta shot just 34.7% from the field and 24.4% from deep in its last battle against San Antonio. Neither team has shown a strong offensive propensity. Take UNDER 172.5 (-110).

Summer League: San Antonio Spurs vs. Atlanta Hawks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s San Antonio Spurs vs. Atlanta Hawks odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[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.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

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).

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

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).

Prediction

Hawks 114, Hornets 108

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on the Hawks (-600) to take the down Hornets, who are 2-8 in their last 10 games and 8-30 on the road this season.

Charlotte is 5-3 ATS in its last 8 games and has covered the spread in 4 of its last 6 as an underdog of 9.5 or more points. It faces an Atlanta team that is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 and failed to cover in its last game as a double-digit favorite.

BET OVER 219.5 (-110).

Both the Hornets and Hawks have Over records of 8-2 in their last 10 games. The Hornets have hit the Over in each of their last 3 games, and 5 of 6, while scoring 118 or more in 4 of their last 8. The Hawks have hit the Over in back-to-back games and scored 110 or more points in 9 of their last 10.

The Atlanta Hawks (36-41) take on the Denver Nuggets (53-24) Saturday. Tip-off from Ball Arena is set for 9 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Hawks vs. Nuggets odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Denver leads 1-0 with a 129-122 road win Dec. 11

Atlanta lost 109-95 vs. the Dallas Mavericks Thursday while failing to cover as an 11.5-point road underdog. The Hawks committed 21 turnovers while also having no scorer eclipse the 15-point mark. The Hawks had won back-to-back games before Thursday’s loss.

Denver suffered a 102-100 loss at the hands of the LA Clippers Thursday while failing to cover as a 3.5-point road favorite. C Nikola Jokic continued his MVP campaign with a 36-point, 17-rebound, 10-assist triple double, but he just missed the game-winning 3 at the buzzer. Thursday’s loss ended a streak of back-to-back wins for the Nuggets.

Hawks at Nuggets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nuggets 118, Hawks 104

Moneyline

PASS.

I expect the Nuggets to pick up the win, but they are not worth the risk of betting on as -720 favorites. Bet on the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

LEAN NUGGETS -12 (-110).

Denver has covered the spread in back-to-back matchups vs. Atlanta and is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. The Nuggets are also 3-0 ATS in their last 3 vs. the Hawks in Denver. The Nuggets have covered in each of their last 3 matchups with an Eastern Conference opponent.

This is a lean because the Nuggets have been bad ATS lately and subpar on the season.

Over/Under

BET OVER 221.5 (110).

The Over has hit in each of the last 4 Atlanta-Denver matchups and is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings. The Over has also hit in 3 of the last 4 meetings between these squads in Denver. For Atlanta, the Over is 8-2 in its last 10 overall and 42-35 on the season.

Be aware that the Under has hit in 4 of Denver’s last 5 overall.

The Dallas Mavericks (45-30) welcome the Atlanta Hawks (36-40) to American Airlines Center Thursday. Tip is set for 7:30 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Hawks at Mavericks odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Mavericks lead 1-0

The Mavericks beat the Hawks in Atlanta 148-143 on Jan. 26, covering as a 2-point road underdog. The Over 245.5 hit with ease.

Dallas lost to the Golden State Warriors 104-100 Tuesday, failing to cover as a 1-point home underdog. The loss snapped a 7-game winning streak. The Mavs are 6-2 against the spread (ATS) in their last 8 games and 43-32 ATS on the season. They are led by G Luka Doncic, who averages 33.9 points, 9.2 rebounds and 9.8 assists per game.

The Hawks beat the Detroit Pistons 121-113 Wednesday, failing to cover as a 12-point home favorite. They have won 6 of their last 7 and are 5-2 ATS in that stretch. Atlanta is 28-48 ATS on the season. It is led by G Dejounte Murray, who is averaging 22.6 points.

Hawks at Mavericks picks and predictions

Prediction

Mavericks 123, Hawks 114

Moneyline

PASS.

The Hawks (+430) are already without several key players and will be on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. They should have tired legs and aren’t worth the wager as a huge underdog. Similarly, the Mavs (-590) are far too expensive to play outright.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS +11 (-108).

Atlanta had high expectations coming into the season, and it hasn’t hit many of those ceilings. However, it has been good when counted out. The Hawks are 4-0 ATS this season when an underdog of 9.5 or greater, winning outright in 3 of those games.

Two of those came against the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Celtics and were within the last 2 weeks. Since the start of March, Dallas is just 1-1 ATS as a favorite of 9 or greater.

That said, expect Atlanta to continue exceeding expectations and take HAWKS +11 (-108).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 230.5 (-110).

The Hawks are 8-1 O/U in their last 9 games, scoring at least 113 in every game since March 21 (8 games). They have allowed 122 or more points in 3 of those as well. Atlanta ranks 27th in defensive rating, making it unlikely it can slow down Doncic and company.

The Mavs have swayed the other way and are 2-7 O/U in their last 9, but have tallied at least 125 in 2 of their last 4. The Mavs should get theirs, and the Hawks have been playing well enough to assume they can stay hot.

Take OVER 230.5 (-110).

Pistons at Hawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawks 115, Pistons 101

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on the Hawks (-750), who are 20-18 at home, to beat the Pistons (+525), who are riddled with injuries and just 6-30 on the road.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS -11.5 (-115).

Detroit is dealing with an array of injuries and as a result has failed to cover the spread in 5 of its last 8 games, including 2 of its last 3 on the road as a double-digit underdog. It has scored 99 or fewer points in 3 of its last 4 games and will be unable to keep up with a Hawks squad that has covered in 5 of its last 6 games, including 4 of its last 5 at home.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 223.5 (-110).

The Pistons have allowed 110 or more points in 6 of their last 8 games while scoring 101 or more points in 4 of their last 7.

Atlanta has hit the Over in 8 of its last 10 games including 7 of its last 8. It has scored at least 110 points in 9 of its last 10 games while allowing 122 in 2 of its last 3 and 118 or more points in 6 of its last 10.

While Atlanta should carry a majority of the weight, with Detroit’s recent track record they will not be able to score enough for the Over to hit.

Bucks at Hawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Bucks 118, Hawks 116

Moneyline

PASS.

The Bucks are the better team and should come out on top, but they aren’t worth a play at a juiced -166. The Hawks are surging and have value as an underdog, but their spread is the better option here.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS +3.5 (-110).

Atlanta is surging, and Murray has been carrying most of the load. The Hawks have won 4 straight at home, 2 of those coming against the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Celtics.

Atlanta has scored at least 120 in 4 straight games and have the offensive firepower to hang with the Bucks, who will be without Lillard, their second-leading scorer. Milwaukee has lost 3 of its last 5 and struggled to cover on the road in March. It is 3-4 ATS on the road in the calendar month.

Considering the trends for both teams and Atlanta’s recent success against quality opponents, back HAWKS +3.5 (-110).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 223 (-110).

If there’s one thing both teams have in common, it is that they have scored with ease as of late. The Bucks have tallied at least 114 in 6 of their last 7. They are 4-2-1 O/U in that stretch.

Atlanta is 40-33 O/U on the season and has gone Over in 6 straight games. It has scored at least 115 in its last 5 and has allowed at least 118 in 4 of its last 6.

LEAN OVER 223 (-110).

Boston Celtics at Atlanta Hawks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Boston Celtis at Atlanta Hawks odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Boston Celtics (57-15) battle the Atlanta Hawks (33-39) Thursday. Tip-off at State Farm Arena is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Celtics vs. Hawks odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Celtics lead 2-1; Hawks surprised Boston 120-118 as 10.5-point underdogs Monday as the Over (224.5) cashed

The Celtics had their 9-game winning streak snapped in Atlanta Monday, and in a scheduled twist, they face the Hawks for a 2nd straight game. It’s not a true back-to-back, though, as Atlanta faced the Portland Trail Blazers Wednesday night, with the Hawks winning 120-106.

Boston is still 8-2 against the spread (ATS) in the past 10 games, despite the loss, while cashing the Over in 4 in a row and 6 of the past 7 contests.

Atlanta has won 3 in a row while scoring at least 120 points in each of the outings. The Hawks have covered those 3 games, too, while hitting the Over in 5 consecutive contests.

Celtics at Hawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Celtics 123, Hawks 111

Moneyline

The Celtics (-1200) will cost you 12 times your potential return, and there is never a reason to bet such heavy favorites, straight up or otherwise. In fact, Monday’s game should serve as a cautionary tale, as the C’s were laying double-digits on the road, and the Hawks (+750) won outright.

AVOID.

Against the spread

The HAWKS +16 (-110) is a strong play catching 8 buckets. They just won outright as 10.5-point underdogs Monday night.

The books might be overthinking this a bit. Perhaps they figure that loss lit a fire under the Celtics -16 (-110), and they’ll come out mad. Perhaps there is concern with Atlanta playing a 3rd game in 4 days, and the legs might not be there. All valid concerns, certainly, but it’s hard to get past the result of Monday’s game, head-to-head.

Boston should exact some revenge, but Atlanta is catching an awful lot of points, especially on its home floor, and it is playing well lately.

Over/Under

OVER 226 (-110) is a slam-dunk play in the ATL.

The Celtics have been so-so on Over plays this season, splitting totals right down the middle at 35-35-2. However, the Over is on a 4-0 run while going 6-1-1 in the past 8 games, including Monday’s 120-118 loss on a total of 224.5. Boston has 117 or more points in 10 striaght games while allowing 113 or more points in 3 of the past 4 outings.

The Hawks have also been rocking the Over, hitting high in 5 in a row, with 120 or more points of offense in 3 straight games while yielding 118 or more points in 3 of the past 5 contests.
