Hornets vs Hawks Prediction
The Hawks have played some of their best ball on the road, where they have 16 wins, but they’re banged up and just lost to the Hornets a few days ago at home by 7 points. The Hornets are one of the hottest teams in the league, and they’re a profitable 32-22 ATS on the season. We’ve been on the Hornets a lot this season, and there’s no reason to stop now. The Hornets have covered 7 of the last 10 games against the Hawks. I’m not stepping in front of the red-hot Hornets, especially for the Hawks. Give me the home team.
