The 76ers are 13-6 ATS in their last 19 Friday games and 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games playing on 0 days rest. The Hawks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 Friday games and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games playing on 1 days rest. The under is 4-1 in 76ers last 5 overall. The under is 4-0 in Hawks last 4 Friday games. The 76ers are 4-11 ATS in the last 15 meetings in Atlanta.

The Philadelphia 76ers are likely going to sit their key players after playing last night and being locked into the third seed. I’m still not laying this many points with an up and down Hawks team. The Hawks rarely comfortably win games, and they win as favorites by an average of 2.1 points. It’s the 76ers and the points or pass.
