Atlanta Hawks vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
I’ve been fading the Hawks for a while and there’s no reason to stop now. The Hawks are 0-4 SU and ATS in their last 4 games. The Grizzlies are coming off one of their better showings in a while, and they’ve had a few days off to get healthier and recharge the batteries a bit. We’re not being asked to lay much, and the Grizzlies are at home. The Grizzlies are 7-4 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite. I’ll lay the bucket with the Grizz.
