Premium Pick

Atlanta looks to bounce back from an off-shooting night when it hit only four of 21 3-point tries and shot 38 percent overall in losing 120-95 to Orlando. Trae Young led the Hawks with 28 points, but got so frustrated that he was called for two technical fouls and was ejected with 4:47 left in the game. The teams split four meetings this season, and the Hawks are in double revenge after losing the last two, including 122-112 on March 27. Atlanta has been 4-0-1 ATS in its past five games following a loss, and Miami is 1-8 ATS as a road favorite with 0.5-4.5 points. The Heat shot 49 percent and went 13-for-35 from 3-point range, defeating Chicago 109-90. The Hawks must focus on Tyler Herro, who scored 38 points while hitting his first eight shots against the Bulls. Miami is 2-8-1 ATS in its past 11 on the road against teams with winning home records, and it is a pick or a slight favorite in this matchup. Take the Hawks on the moneyline.
