Charlotte at Atlanta

January 31, 2018
img7:35 PM Eastern

The Charlotte Hornets have apparently thrown in the towel for the season at 20-29. They are rumored to be shopping Kemba Walker, and I would not be surprised to see him moved before the trade deadline. That isn't good for the general psyche of a team. The Hornets have shot the ball horribly over their last six games, not topping the 45% mark in any of them. Atlanta at 15-35 has not done much this season, but an opportunity for a rare win should have them playing hard for this one. The Hawks wiped away a three game losing streak with a big win over Minnesota last time out. The Hawks have cherished the role as a home dog, where they are 7-2 SU/ATS in their last nine. Grab the points and play on Atlanta.
