The New Orleans Pelicans are looking to turn their season around. With a current record of 2-14, they have faced challenges early in the season. Playing at the Smoothie King Center, they hope to use home-court advantage to gain momentum. The Pelicans have had difficulties on both ends of the court.

The Atlanta Hawks are entering the game with a 9-7 record. They have been strong on the road, winning 7 out of 10 away games. However, they are looking to end a two-game losing streak. Offensively, the Hawks score 117.8 points per game, ranking them 17th in the league. Their field goal percentage is impressive at 49.0%, placing them 7th overall. Their ability to share the ball is evident, with 30.4 assists per game, which is the second-best in the NBA. On the defensive side, the Hawks allow 115.7 points per game. They struggle with rebounds, allowing 45.7 per game, which ranks 23rd. Despite this, they excel in limiting opponents’ three-point shooting to 34.3%, ranking 7th in the league.

Final Betting Pick

The Hawks are favored by 6.5 points, and this spread looks reasonable. They have a strong road record of 7-3, while the Pelicans have struggled at home with a 1-7 record.

For the over/under, the line is set at 230.5, and the under seems likely. The Pelicans have the lowest points per game in the league at 109.3. The Hawks’ defense allows 115.7 points per game, which is middle of the pack, but should be enough to keep the total score under the line.
