Rockets vs. Hawks Picks & Prediction

Jack's Free Pick Tuesday: Rockets/Hawks UNDER 227

Both the Atlanta Hawks and Houston Rockets are dealing with injuries right now that will hamper them offensively.  Points will be very hard to come by for both teams tonight as a result, and I like the UNDER in this contest.

Leading scorer Jalen Green (21.2 PPG) and key bench man Cam Whitmore (10.0 PPG) are both questionable to play tonight for the Rockets.  Jalen Johnson (18.9 PPG) is out, while Trae Young (22.8 PPG, 11.5 APG) and Dyson Daniels (13.5 PPG) are both questionable to play for the Hawks tonight.

We saw the Hawks really struggle offensively without these three last night in a 100-92 road loss at Minnesota for just 192 combined points.  They scored 94 points against the Raptors the game prior as well.  The UNDER is 6-1 in Hawks last seven games overall.

The Rockets have combined for 228 or fewer points with their opponents in four of their last five games, including 226 or fewer in three of their last four.  This total is a couple notches too high given the injury situation for both teams tonight.  Bet the UNDER in this game Tuesday.

Tuesday NBA Free play. My selection is on Atlanta plus the points over Houston at 7:30 pm ET on Tuesday.

The Rockets enter this game riding high after a thrilling last-second 'upset' win over the Celtics in Boston on Monday. However, the quick turnaround presents a tough challenge as they head to Atlanta to face the Hawks. While Houston has covered the spread in three straight games, matching its best ATS streak since November, the emotional high from last night’s victory could leave the Rockets vulnerable in this spot.

Meanwhile, Atlanta is desperate to end its recent struggles, having dropped five straight games outright. The Hawks fell 100-92 in Minnesota on Monday but snapped a four-game ATS skid in the process. Back at home, they should be motivated to capitalize on a potentially fatigued Rockets squad.

Look for Atlanta to deliver a strong effort and keep this matchup competitive.

Take Atlanta. Projected score: Houston 111, Atlanta 110.
