Atlanta at Phoenix

Atlanta continues a seven-game road trip and the second of a back-to-back spot after playing at Utah last night, a 128-112 defeat. The team is #19 in the NBA in scoring, #27 in three-point shooting, #23 from the charity stripe, while the defense is worse, last in points surrendered (117.9 pg). They committed 21 turnovers during Wednesday's 135-113 loss to the Sacramento Kings. The Hawks are 7-18-1 ATS against the NBA Pacific division, plus 0-7 ATS playing on no days rest. The Phoenix Suns are well rested and home after a brutal stretch against tough teams. The Suns get back rookie center Deandre Ayton, who has missed six games with a sprained left ankle. They come off a 2-point loss at San Antonio as a +13 dog and are 8-1 ATS against losing teams. Phoenix is 15-5-1 ATS against Atlanta, so back the rested home team and take Phoenix.
