However, betting on a team favored this heavily on the ML is never recommended, so pass and bet on the spread and\/or Over\/Under instead.<\/p>\n LEAN HAWKS -14.5 (-115).<\/p>\n Atlanta has covered the spread in 7 of its last 10 overall, sitting at 4-0 ATS in its last 4 home games. The Hawks are also a much better 40-34 against the spread this season than Sacramento’s 29-43-2 ATS record. The Hawks are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 matchups with Sacramento, having covered in back-to-back meetings.<\/p>\n This is a LEAN because the Kings have covered the spread 2 of their last 3 on the road and because they are 3-2 ATS in their last 5 matchups against Atlanta.<\/p>\n BET UNDER 236.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Under is 2-1 in Sacramento’s last 3 road games. The Under is also a much more dominant 8-2 in the last 10 matchups between these squads, having hit in 3 of the last 4 meetings in Atlanta.<\/p>\n Be aware that the Over\/Under is 5-5 in both teams’ last 10 games and that both teams have a perfectly even 37-37 O\/U record this season.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
