Bucks vs Hawks prediction
The Bucks have shown some recent issues of the poor defense returning, and they've lost 3 of their last 5 games. The Hawks have quietly won 4 straight games, which includes two wins over the Celtics as double-digit underdogs, and they have a chance to improve their play-in tournament status if they can keep it up. I know the Hawks are the worst ATS team in the NBA with a 27-46 record, but the Bucks aren't profitable either at 32-40-1 ATS. The Hawks have also won 3 of their last 5 games. I'll grab the points with the Hawks at home, as they're feeling themselves a bit after the week they're having.
