Atlanta Hawks vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction

The Thunder aren’t the Nets or Hornets, so we’re going to learn a lot more about the Hawks in this game. However, the Hawks are off to a strong start through two games, and they’ve gotten after it defensively. Trae Young is also playing like an MVP candidate through the first two games. The Oklahoma City Thunder are also on the end of a back to back, and I’m not a fan of lying massive numbers with a team playing its second game in as many days. The Hawks have won 6 of the last 8 games against the Thunder, for what that’s worth. Give me the points.
