Randy’s Free Pick
This is a massive line for the Hawks, but it’s an indication of just how bad the San Antonio Spurs are, and being on the end of a back to back doesn’t help. The Spurs are losing their last 5 games by an average of 16.2 points, and they lose as underdogs by an average of 11.2 points. The Spurs are getting blown out nightly as they continue to tank for the top pick. It’s Hawks or pass for me.
