Atlanta Hawks vs Washington Wizards prediction
I’m not trying to back the Washington Wizards as much as the next guy, but siding with the Hawks is a no-go. The Atlanta Hawks continue to lose games, and their 7-24 ATS record is the worst in the league. The Hawks don’t come close to making bettors money. As awful as the Wizards are, they are 15-15-1 ATS on the season. Give me the points with the home team. I have no use for the Hawks.
