Odds and bets for Wednesday’s NBA slate, highlighted by the Hawks hosting the surprising Jazz.
After the entire NBA took Tuesday off for Election Day, games resume Wednesday and 26 teams are in action.
There’s two cross-city rivalries going on this evening as the Nets host the Knicks and the Clippers and Lakers battle in their shared arena later in the night. There’s a somewhat surprising marquee matchup between two of the better teams so far this season: Jazz-Hawks. Utah is tied with the Bucks for the most wins in basketball and Atlanta is the only team that’s beaten Milwaukee.
Get the betting breakdown for that cross-conference contest below, as well as the odds and lines for the other dozen games.
Utah Jazz vs. Atlanta Hawks Odds
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
Spread: Jazz +3.5 (-110) | Hawks -3.5 (-110)
Moneyline: Jazz (+130) | Hawks (-154)
Total: 228.5 — Over (-110) | Under (-110)
Jazz Straight-Up Record: 9-3
Jazz Against The Spread Record: 9-3
Hawks Straight-Up Record: 7-3
Hawks Against The Spread Record: 5-5
The last five meetings between these teams have all gone to the Jazz and neither game last season was particularly close. This has been a difficult matchup for Trae Young throughout his career as he’s only recorded one win in six tries.
Young in questionable with a shin injury and was held out of the previous game against Milwaukee. Offseason addition Dejounte Murray led the way for the Hawks with Young sidelined in a 117-98 win and he’s really come on over the last few weeks. Utah enters Tuesday coming off three wins in a row, two against the Lakers and one against the Clippers. Lauri Markkanen’s stretch of strong play to start the season continued as he leads the team in scoring (21.9) and rebounding (8.8).
Both squads actually have very similar profiles: They each have a top-six scoring offense and they’re only one spot apart in points allowed. If Young isn’t able to go, I still like Atlanta’s chances given their success against the Bucks without him. And if he is, all the better for what should be a shootout.
BETS: Hawks -3.5 (-110), Over 228.5 (-110)
