The 32-48 Toronto Raptors will travel to play the 44-36 Atlanta Hawks in an NBA pro basketball game on Tuesday night. Tip off time from Atlanta is scheduled for 8PM Eastern Time with national television coverage provided by the TNT.
The odds from this NBA pro basketball game has the home team Atlanta Hawks favored by -6 points with an over under line of 197 points. There has been no line movement since the odds came out a few hours ago.
This will be the third meeting of the season between these two clubs with Atlanta winning both games. Each team covered the point spread on the road.
Toronto has a road record of 12-28 on the year. They win their third straight and fifth in six games after a 93-87 home victory on Sunday to the Brooklyn Nets as a +4 point underdog. The game finished under 194 ½ points.
The Raptors shot 43.9% from the field and connected on 6 of 15 three pointers. They pulled down ten more rebounds than the Nets and held Brooklyn to 40.5% shooting. DeMar DeRozan led the Raptors with 36 points and five rebounds as he made 12 of his 22 shots. Toronto is missing the playoffs due to below average play on both ends of the court. They rank in the bottom half of the NBA in all three key defensive and offensive categories.
The Hawks are 25-15 playing at home. The Hawks win for the second straight game after a 109-104 home victory on Friday to the Milwaukee Bucks as a -7 ½ point betting favorite. The game finished over the total of 203 ½ points. Atlanta overcame a 14 point first half deficit by outscoring Milwaukee 69-50 in the second half. They enjoyed a 50.6% shooting game and made 6 of 20 from the three point line. The Hawks held the Bucks to 41.3% from the floor and forced 19 Milwaukee turnovers. Jeff Teague had 24 points and dished out ten assists for Atlanta as he made 10 of his 15 shots. The team sits in the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference by one game over the sixth seeded Chicago Bulls with two games to play. They cannot catch Brooklyn for the fourth seed and will not have home court advantage in the NBA first round playoffs starting next weekend. Atlanta has shot the ball very well ranking in the sixth in the league in field goal and three point shooting. Defensively they are an inconsistent team.
