Smart Game Analysis
Atlanta Hawks has a 60% chance of winning the game
The Hawks' superior depth and strong record against struggling teams should overcome Trae Young's absence to defeat a Clippers squad that has lost 14 of its last 16 games.
Key Analysis
- • The Clippers are in a severe slump, having lost 14 of their last 16 games and five in a row.
- • Jalen Johnson has stepped up as the primary option for Atlanta, averaging 23.2 points and 10.0 rebounds per game.
- • Atlanta's defense holds opponents to 34.1% shooting from deep, while the Clippers allow a high 39.3%.
- • The Hawks already proved they can beat this Clippers team with a 105-102 road victory on November 10.
- • Los Angeles has failed to cover the spread in its last five games, indicating they are consistently underperforming expectations.
- • The Clippers need efficient, high-volume scoring from James Harden and Kawhi Leonard to offset their defensive lapses.
