The Atlanta Hawks play host to the Portland Trail Blazers at the State Farm Arena on Tuesday night. Here’s a Portland Trail Blazers vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction. This article will include a Portland Trail Blazers vs Atlanta Hawks Pick.

Portland Trail Blazers Betting Preview

The Portland Trail Blazers have gone cold lately as they are now hoping to avoid a fifth straight defeat after getting trounced by the Knicks in a 110-93 road loss on Sunday. Deni Avdija led the team with 33 points, seven rebounds, and four assists on 14 of 25 shooting, Shaedon Sharpe added 23 points with seven rebounds and three assists, while Tounami Camara chipped in with 16 points, eight rebounds, and four assists. As a team, the Trail Blazers shot 43 percent from the field and nine of 36 from the 3-point line as they poured in 33 points in the second quarter to take a 14-point lead. However, they went ice-cold and got outscored by 60-35 in the second half, to get blown out in the end. The Trail Blazers got next to nothing from their bench as Duop Reath scored just four points while Dalano Banton shot zero of six from the field to finish scoreless. 

Atlanta Hawks Betting Preview

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks have been in pretty good shape as they've won eight of their last 12 games overall, and they will be looking to stay hot after blowing past the Bucks in a 145-124 road win on Sunday. Zaccharie Risacher led the team with 36 points on 12 of 21 shooting, Dyson Daniels added 22 points, nine rebounds, six assists, and five steals, while Trae Young tallied 19 points with 19 assists. As a team, the Hawks shot 53 percent from the field and 17 of 48 from the 3-point line as they stormed out of the gates with 82 points in the first half to overcome an early nine-point deficit. Before, they dominated the third quarter by 36-17 to lead by as many as 27 points. 

Why the Atlanta Hawks will win

  • The home team has won 14 of the last 15 games between the Trail Blazers and Hawks.
  • The Trail Blazers have lost each of their last nine games as road underdogs.
  • The Hawks have covered the spread in each of their last seven games at State Farm Arena against Western Conference opponents that held a losing record.
  • The Trail Blazers have failed to cover the spread in each of their last eight Tuesday night games against teams that held a losing record.

Why the Portland Trail Blazers will win

  • The Trail Blazers have won each of their last seven games against Southeast Division opponents.
  • The Hawks have lost four of their last six games as favorites against Northwest Division opponents.
  • The Trail Blazers have covered the spread in each of their last seven night games against Eastern Conference opponents that held a losing record.
  • The Hawks have failed to cover the spread in five of their last six games as favorites against Northwest Division opponents.

  • Each of the Trail Blazers' last four night games at State Farm Arena following a road loss have gone OVER the total points line.

Portland Trail Blazers vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction

The Trail Blazers have ruled out Scoot Henderson and Jerami Grant, with Anfernee Simons listed as questionable, while the Hawks are still playing without Larry Nance Jr and Clint Capela. The Trail Blazers are coming into this one riding a four-game losing streak, while the Hawks have won eight of their last 12 games, including wins over the Warriors and the Bucks. It's hard to split these two squads at the moment, as I wouldn't be shocked if the Trail Blazers win in a close one like they did back on Nov. 17, where they beat the Hawks by 114-110. However, the Hawks looked great in their last game, and I think they can get their revenge at home in this spot.
