Result:
LOSS

You need an uptempo offense to hang with the Suns, and Atlanta has it, 13th in the NBA in points scored and tops in assists. Atlanta is well rested not having played since Wednesday -- and their next game isn't until Wednesday! The Hawks are 5-0 ATS against the Pacific division and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Phoenix is scoring, but not playing any defense after its last four opponents have averaged 109.5 points on 52.7 percent shooting. Phoenix is off a one-sided win, but the Suns are 2-5 ATS following a win of more than 10 points. That ended a three-game skid, too, so grab the big dog. Play the Atlanta Hawks.
