Los Angeles Lakers vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Kennedy Kechula | in NBA Prediction
The LA Lakers will be seeking to get back to winning ways when they host the Atlanta Hawks next in the NBA. LA are currently in 10th place in the Western Conference, the same position the Hawks hold in the East. The Lakers have lost their last two games. This slump has seen them drop deeper into the play-in places. Darvin Ham’s men, who are four games above .500, are three games back now from the top six places. They were defeated 128-121 at home by fellow play-in rivals Golden State last time out. LeBron James led all other scorers on the floor with 40 points. He is available for this game and should be the number one option again. Anthony Davis was injured against the Warriors and played just 12 minutes. The Lakers’ second-leading scorer has been listed as ‘Questionable’ for this match. Cam Reddish is also a doubt to feature while Jarred Vanderbilt, Christian Wood, Colin Castleton, and Gabe Vincent are ruled out. The Lakers have averaged 116 points over their last three matches.
The Hawks snapped a three-game losing run last time out and will be confident coming into this match. Quin Snyder’s men, who are currently on a five-match trip to the West, defeated the Clippers 110-93 in their last match. Their 30th win of the season allowed them to tighten their grip amongst the top 10 teams in the East. Five players scored in double figures in the game with Dejounte Murray leading the way with 21 and 10 assists. Trae Young remains sidelined with a finger injury and will miss a 12th successive game. Five more players will miss this trip also due to injuries. They are Saddiq Bey, Mouhammed Gueye, AJ Griffin, Kobe Bufin, and Onyeka Okongwu. Atlanta, who possess the fifth-best-ranked offence, have seen their scoring output take a hit in recent outings. They have averaged 111.3 points in their last three matches which is an eight-point drop off from their season average.
