The Hawks are 14-29 ATS in their last 43 road games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Friday games. The Lakers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Friday games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 9-4 in Hawks last 13 overall. The over is 13-6 in Lakers last 19 overall. The Hawks are 5-11 ATS in the last 16 meetings in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to have LeBron back for this game, and they're at home. There are no excuses. The Atlanta Hawks have been the most disappointing team in the league, and they lose in the underdog role by an average of 4.1 points. I don't like backing the Hawks regardless of whom they play. Give me the Lakers in this toss up spot, assuming LeBron is back.
