Hawks vs Thunder Injury Report
Zaccharie Risacher is questionable for the Hawks with an ankle injury. Kristaps Porzingis is questionable with an illness.

Hawks vs Thunder Prediction
The Hawks are on the end of a back-to-back, and they’re not a team I’m running to the window to back. However, the Thunder have played two straight double-overtime games, and their injury report is ridiculous. There are a few rotation players already out, and they could also be without Holmgren and Wallace. Even for a deep team that just won the title, this is a lot of basketball out of the gate and a lot to ask of an undermanned team. Even a squad like the Hawks should be able to take advantage of tired legs. I’ll grab the points with the Hawks.
