The Atlanta Hawks (17-19) visit the Toronto Raptors (20-15) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Saturday, January 3, at Scotiabank Arena.

The Raptors put their strong start to a five-game homestand to another test when they host the Hawks on Saturday. Recently, Toronto dropped a frustrating 106-103 decision to the Denver Nuggets despite playing at home and facing a Denver team without Nikola Jokic. 

Brandon Ingram produced a team-high 30 points, while Scottie Barnes tallied a triple-double of 20 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists. But the rest of the team had a horrendous shooting night, especially their bench players.

Another concern for the Raptors is the absence of injured Jakob Poeltl, stripping them of a solid presence inside the paint.

As for Atlanta, the Hawks arrive with a little momentum after snapping a seven-game losing streak and then following it up with an inspiring 111-99 win over the New York Knicks on Friday. 

Rising star Jalen Johnson posted a triple-double in that win, recording 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists. Key players Onyeka Okongwu and Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 23 points each.

All-Star guard Trae Young, who is nursing a quad injury, will not play on Saturday against the Knicks.

Atlanta Hawks - Toronto Raptors Key Points

  1. The Raptors lead the season head-to-head series against the Hawks, 2-0.
  2. The Raptors have the fourth-best defensive rating in the league.
  3. The Hawks have lost seven of their last nine games.
  4. The Hawks will miss the services of Trae Young.

Our Atlanta Hawks vs Toronto Raptors Prediction

Toronto already showed it can solve Atlanta twice this season, and the matchup still points in the same direction: the Raptors’ defense has been steadier. They have the fourth-best defensive rating in the league, something that they can bring on Saturday.

Despite winning their last two games, this is still a Hawks team that lost seven of their last nine games. Plus, they'll be without star Trae Young on Saturday. Our prediction for the Toronto Raptors vs Atlanta Hawks match is: Raptors (-3.5) cover the spread.
