Atlanta at Oklahoma City

Young Atlanta is playing hard, on a 2-1 SU/ATS run. They had a 124-123 victory over Charlotte as a +6.5 dog, a 115-113 win at Miami as a +7.5 dog and covered the last game in the rematch with Charlotte as a +12 dog. Atlanta has terrific building blocks with rookie point guard Trae Young (15.9 ppg), tied for sixth in the NBA in assists at 7.6 per contest, and 6-10 John Collins (14.3 ppg). The Hawks have covered five of their last seven road games and are 32-16 ATS on the road after allowing 105+ points in three straight games. Oklahoma City is a big favorite, but ranks #14 in points scored, #22 in shooting, #27 from the free throw line. And Oklahoma City is 18-34 ATS against teams that get outrebounded by 5+ boards per game. Back Atlanta.
