Moneyline
Given the recent struggles for the Hawks, there is fantastic value in backing the NETS (+140) on Wednesday. Atlanta has gone 1-3 in its last 4 games, while Brooklyn has registered a 4-1 record in its last 5 games.
The Hawks are also only 3-5 at home this season.
Against the spread
NETS +3.5 (-105) is the ideal wager here with us taking them to win outright. Even if Brooklyn can't secure the win, it should keep this game close enough to cover the spread on the road.
The Nets are 14-4-1 ATS overall and 5-2 ATS on the road this season. Meanwhile, the Hawks are 5-14 ATS overall and 1-7 ATS at home.
Over/Under
LEAN OVER 242.5 (-110).
This is a massive pace-up game for the Nets as the Hawks play at the 3rd-fastest pace in the NBA. Both teams are also in the bottom half of the league when it comes to defensive rating.
The Nets are 6-4 to the Over in their last 10 games, and the Hawks are 7-3 to the Over in their last 10.
