The Hawks are entering this game with a 43-33 record overall this season and they are 20-17 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game on a 2 game winning streak with wins coming against the Sacramento Kings and the Boston Celtics.

CJ McCollum and Nickeil Alexander-Walker each led the team in assists in that game with 6 while Jalen Johnson led the team in rebounds with 12.

Their offense is averaging 118.2 PPG and their defense is allowing their opponents to average 116.2 PPG against them. The Hawks have an ATS record of 41-35 this season and their O/U record is 38-38.

The Magic are entering this game with a 39-35 record overall this season and they are 22-14 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a loss against the Toronto Raptors, but this is also the 2nd game of a back-to-back for them with their game against the Phoenix Suns still to be played on Tuesday night. In their game against the Raptors, Desmond Bane led the team in points in that game with 17 while Jalen Suggs was next on the team with 13 points. Jalen Suggs led the team in assists in that game with 5 while Paolo Banchero led the team in rebounds with 5.

The current betting odds have the Hawks listed as a 4.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Hawks have looked good in their games this season with their 43-33 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have been a good road team too with their 20-17 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Magic have looked good in their games this season with their 39-35 record overall which has them right in the middle of the East. They have looked great on their home court too with their 22-14 home record this season. The Magic were rolling just over a week ago and they looked like they were going to land a playoff spot, but lately they have looked terrible in their games which has caused them to slide down into the play-in tournament. They are 3-7 in their last 10 games and they are off a terrible loss to the Raptors in their last one by over 50 points. They are also in a bad situation here since they are playing this game on a back-to-back while the Hawks are rested, and the Magic don't have an easy game against the Suns the night before either. The Hawks have been one of the hottest teams in the NBA since the trade deadline though and they have really salvaged their season with some good moves. They just pulled off a big win over the Celtics in their last one so they have some momentum on their side with 2 wins in a row now and they are also 8-2 in their last 10 games. The Magic have been really up and down all season and lately they have been taking a dive along with being in a bad situation for this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Hawks to cover the spread in this game.

"I mean, it's just about letting it fly. I put a lot of time into that part of my game, for it to not be where I want it to be, obviously this year's been a very big dip. So, for me it's just about trusting my work, going into every game with the mindset, if I'm open, letting them fly. My teammates trust me, coaches trust me, so like I said, I put in too much work to not really go out there and at least try a couple a game." - Dyson Daniels after their win against the Celtics in their game on Monday. 

“I’ve got to be able to do a better job of preparing them for what they were going to see tonight.” - Jamahl Mosley after his team’s loss against the Raptors in their game on Sunday.
