Phoenix Suns vs Atlanta Hawks prediction

The Atlanta Hawks are coming off a couple of nice wins, but it’s going to take more than that for me to jump on the bandwagon. The Hawks are still 12-35 ATS on the season, which is easily the worst covering team in the NBA. The Phoenix Suns aren’t a lot better at putting money in your pocket, but they’re starting to come together as a team and rack up these victories. Durant, Booker, and Beal are getting more and more comfortable. The line is more than reasonable. I’ll lay the chalk with the Suns on the road.
