OVERALL RECORD: 37-28, +6.32u
RECAP: The Suns were in absolute control of that game until the fourth quarter, where they absolutely crumbled under the pressure on Sunday, and yesterday, we lost another two units on picks yesterday. We’re down in the dumps right now, and looking for today’s games to bounce us back up.

PICK: Atlanta Hawks -4
We’re relying on the Atlanta Hawks once again because they are a good road team, they’re facing a BAD home team, and the Sharp App Money Handles tool screams that this play is a must-take. Let’s dive into it. 

Atlanta is heading to Detroit to take on the Pistons in this In-Season Tournament clash, and the Hawks have been really dominate scoring the ball as of late. This season alone, they’re fourth in the league in overall scoring, six points above league-average on a nightly basis. This mostly comes on the backs of Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, who have been carrying the team to a 5-4 record to begin the season. 

Detroit is trending in the wrong direction, as they’re on an 8-game losing streak and only one game over that stretch is considered “close”. They STINK on the road and they’re only getting a four-point cushion tonight, in a game that players clearly care about. The In-Season Tournament has mostly seen points points points, and the Hawks have yet to play in an in-season tournament game yet - they’ll be hungry to win this game. 

Plus, the Sharp App Money Handles tool absolutely loves this play. At a line of -4, Atlanta has 46% of the bets placed on this game in the early-morning, so they aren’t adored by the public. Yet, they have 84% of the money handles, meaning that there’s a ton of money on them to cash-in at -4. And while the line began at -4.5, it recently got moved to an easier number to hit – I think that if there’s any money being placed on Detroit, it’s because they’re the home team. 

They are 1-4 at home this season, and they’ve been league-average across the board. This game is projected to be high-scoring at 132 points as the over/under, and this Detroit team has had trouble scoring the ball, averaging just 109 points per game this season. They really struggle to score the ball in the second and fourth quarters, meaning that even if Detroit gets out to a lead, watch out, as they could easily let the Hawks back in. 

Let’s back Atlanta once again in a game where they should win easily, especially if they want to solidify themselves as contenders in the East, and have a chance at the tournament money. Atlanta by four.
