Atlanta at Detroit

Premium Pick

The Atlanta Hawks are looking to get back on track as they have lost seven straight games, and have failed to cover any of them. They will try and do so vs. an equally struggling Detroit Pistons team that is just as ugly over a much longer stretch at just 8-16 in their last 24, and are riding a three game slide themselves. One difference is that the Pistons' three game losing streak is to three losing teams, failing to cover any of those, and two of them were on their home court as well. The Hawks will have their best foot forward tonight, as they are 17-6 ATS in their last 23 on a day of rest, while the fragile Pistons are now just 4-10 ATS in their last 14 off an ATS loss. Go with Atlanta.
