Hawks vs Rockets
The Hawks host the lowly Rockets in this inter-conference matchup. The Rockets have had mostly home games thus far in December. They have had better success than they have so far throughout the season. They may be able to carry that over to road games, but that feels unlikely and remains to be seen. The Hawks have been up and down of late. They started the season as one of the most dominant home teams. They have lost a few straight at home now, but I don’t believe there is any reason to panic. Those losses all came against high end Eastern Conference Teams. The Hawks are in a real bounce back spot against the Rockets.

Why Bet The Hawks
✅ The Hawks had some hiccups at home lately. While that is likely not repeatable against a horrific road team like the Rockets, we get an advantage on the betting line. This line opened at Hawks -12 but has been bet all the way down to Hawks -9.5. The Hawks are still not completely healthy, but they are healthier than they have been. Cam Reddish returned to the lineup on Friday in a limited fashion. He should be back to his full allotment of minutes on Monday.
✅ The Hawks overall body of work at home is still an impressive one. Do not let the recent losses fool you. They remain quite a juggernaut at the offensive end. Despite playing at the seventh slowest pace, they average the sixth most points per game. That is thanks to being the second most efficient offensive team in home games. They are not terrible on the defensive end. They are middle of the pack in the league in both defensive efficiency and points allowed.
✅ The Rockets are still brutal on the road. They still have just one win on the year, compared to twelve losses. It should be noted that one win came in Oklahoma City, one of the easiest places in the league to play. The Rockets are bottom six or worse in all of points per game, points allowed per game, offensive efficiency and point differential. They will continue to be missing Jalen Green, Kevin Porter and John Wall in this matchup.
