Atlanta Hawks Betting Prediction

Here is the Hawks vs Grizzlies Betting prediction for Atlanta.

ATL beat Cleveland in their second game of a back-to-back on Wednesday night at home to win their second straight game. The Hawks’ record is now 28–34, and they are third in the Southeast Division, 8.5 games behind the Magic who are in first place.

For the last guaranteed playoff spot, they were 10th in the Eastern Conference, 7.5 games behind the Heat. They were also three games ahead of the Nets for that place. Atlanta had a three-point lead after the first quarter, up to an 18-point lead in the first half, and a 15-point lead at halftime.

At the start of the third quarter, the Hawks were ahead 21–21, but by the end of the quarter, they were behind 2–2. In the last quarter, Atlanta got back on track against a tired Cleveland team and beat them 25–12. This included a 7–0 run that broke a 93–93 tie and put Atlanta in charge for good.

The Hawks made 51.2% of their shots from the field, including 11 of 30 three-point shots. The Cavaliers only made 43.8% of their shots during the game. Anthony McCormick and Bogdan Bogdanovic both scored 23 points to help Atlanta win.

With an average of 120.2 points per game, the Hawks are fifth in the league in scoring attack. Atlanta is sixth in the league in rebounds with 45.1 per game, and they are nineteenth in assists with 26.1 per game. As of now, Atlanta’s scoring defense ranks 29th in the league, giving up 122 points per game.

This season, Trae Young has scored 26.4 points and given out 10.8 assists per game, which is the most on the team. Dejounte Murray scores 21.5 points, grabs 5.3 rebounds, and gives out 5.7 assists every night, while De’Andre Hunter scores 15.5 points.

Coach Quin Snyder uses players like Clint Capela (11 points, 10.3 rebounds), AJ Griffin, Onyeka Okongwu, Saddiq Bey (13.9 points), Jalen Johnson (15.7 points, 8.6 rebounds), Wesley Matthews, and Bogdan Bogdanovic (16.6 points) a lot.

By making 46.6% of their shots from the floor this season, Atlanta is 21st in the league in field goal percentage. The Hawks make 13.4 three-pointers per game, which ranks them ninth in the league. They also make 35.9% of their three-point shots, which ranks them twenty-first in the league.

Matthews is out indefinitely because of sickness. Okongwu (toe) won’t be able to play until the middle of March, and Young (finger) won’t be able to until late March. Johnson left Wednesday’s game because of an ankle injury. He is doubtful here, so keep an eye out for any new information about his condition.

Memphis Grizzlies Betting Prediction

Now we have the Hawks vs Grizzlies Betting prediction for Memphis.

Memphis came back to beat Philadelphia on the road in a game between two teams that were missing star players from their last game on Wednesday night. They were 22-41 on the season as of Thursday, and they were in fourth place in the Southwest Division, 15.5 games behind the Pelicans in first place.

In the Western Conference standings, they were 13th. They were 21.5 games behind the Timberwolves for first place, 14.5 games behind the Suns for the last guaranteed playoff spot, and 11.5 games behind the Lakers for the last spot in the play-in event. Memphis was ahead by eight points in the first quarter and by six points after one.

By the half, they were behind by eight points, down by as many as 12 points in the second quarter. The Grizzlies were behind by as many as 15 points in the third quarter and by 12 points at the half. But in the fourth quarter, they scored 34 points to beat Philadelphia and win.

Memphis made 45.1% of its shots from the field, including 13 of 37 from three-point range, and had a 54-47 edge on the glass. Jarren Jackson Jr. scored 30 points, grabbed 11 boards, and blocked six shots to help the Grizzlies win.

Their average of 106.2 points per game this season ranks them 30th in the league in terms of scoring efficiency. Memphis is 24th in the league in assists per game (24.9), and they are 25th in the league in boards per game (42).

The Grizzlies’ defense is above average; they give up an average of 112.5 points per game, which ranks them 9th in the league. After Michael Beasley, Desmond Bane scores 24.4 points, grabs 4.6 rebounds, and hands out 5.3 assists per game. Marc Smart (14.5 points), Jaren Jackson Jr. (22.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.6 blocks), and Santi Aldama (10.5 points, 5.6 rebounds) are all scoring in the teens or twenty-five points. The group for coach Taylor Jenkins includes Ja Morant (25.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 8.1 assists), David Roddy, Derrick Rose, Ziaire Williams, Luke Kennard (11.1 points), Kenneth Lofton Jr., Bismack Biyombo, Jake LaRavia, Vince Williams Jr., GG Jackson (11.1 points), and John Konchar.

They make 43.8% of their shots from the floor this season, which is the 30th best field goal average in the league. The Grizzlies make 13.4 three-pointers every night, which ranks them 11th in the league. Memphis makes 34.7% of its three-point shots this season, which ranks them 29th in the country in terms of field goal percentage.

Memphis has problems that have made them change up their system. Brandon Clarke can’t play for a while because he tore his Achilles tendon. He hasn’t played since March 3, 2023, and he wants to be back in mid-March. Morant is out for the season with a shoulder injury. Smart (finger) hasn’t played since January 9 and won’t be able to play again until around March.

Bane hurt his ankle on January 13 against the Knicks and won’t be able to play again until late March. Rose last played on February 28 and won’t be able to play again for a while. Williams (back) hasn’t played since March 2 and won’t be able to until early April. Watanabe (wrist) hasn’t played in two games and might not be able to play here. Keep an eye on his status for details.

Hawks vs Grizzlies Betting Pick

At this point in the season, both teams are beyond hurt. The Grizzlies are missing at least three players and a number of important reserves. Atlanta doesn’t have Young as their floor general, but Murray is still in charge on both sides of the court.

The Hawks have had some problems on the road this season, but the Grizzlies are very hurt and have a terrible 7-24 record at home compared to 15-17 on the road. The Hawks still have some of their most important players on the court, so they should be able to put together enough offense to beat the league’s worst offense and win on the road.
