San Antonio Spurs Betting Preview
The San Antonio Spurs have been in a slump as they've lost 10 of their last 13 games overall and they will be hoping to avoid a third straight defeat after getting mauled by the Grizzlies in a 128-109 road defeat on Monday. Victor Wembenyama led the team with 27 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, and two blocks, Stephon Castle added 21 points with six rebounds and five assists while Jeremy Sochan chipped in with 14 points off the bench. As a team, the Spurs shot 45 percent from the field and 12 of 36 from the 3-point line as they struggled to contain the Grizzlies from the start and leaked 34 points in the first quarter to fall behind early and things only got worse in the fourth quarter where they leaked 37 points to get blown out in the end.
Atlanta Hawks Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks have been in poor form, but they will be feeling so much better after arresting an eight-game slide with a thrilling 132-130 road win over the Pistons on Monday. Trae Young led the team with 34 points and nine assists on nine of 16 shooting, De'Andre Hunter added 20 points, Dyson Daniels scored 19 points with seven assists while Zaccharie Risacher chipped in with 17 points. As a team, the Hawks shot 51 percent from the field and 16 of 37 from the 3-point line as they stormed out of the gates with 73 points in the first half to lead by 14 points early on, but they found themselves in trouble late and needed a clutch shot from Young with just 1.1 seconds left on the clock.

San Antonio Spurs vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction
The Spurs are still missing Charles Bassey and they are keeping eyes on Chris Paul and the newly acquired De'Aaron Fox who are both questionable for this one, while the Hawks will again be missing Jalen Johnson, Clint Capela, and Bogdan Bogdanovic. You couldn't back either team with too much confidence these days, but it's the Spurs who open as favorites as they've been the slightly better team overall, but not by much. I get why the Spurs are favorites, but the Hawks would've taken plenty of confidence from their win on Monday and I think they represent decent value as the home underdogs in this spot, especially if Young can have another big game.
