NBA Odds: Hawks-Nets prediction, odds and pick

The Atlanta Hawks are without injured guard Dejounte Murray. Brooklyn is fresh off of a win over the Hornets. The Nets are 14-12 and trail the first-seed Celtics by seven games. They are also two games behind the Miami Heat, who are currently in tenth place.  The NBA odds series will reveal the Hawks-Nets prediction and pick this evening.

Dejounte Murray is injured and the Hawks are hoping he recovers quickly. Trae Young missed Thursday's practice due to an illness. The Hawks lost to the Nets last time out. Atlanta shot a season-worst 38% from the floor and only 89 points in four quarters. The team is 5-7 on the road this season. They shot 16.7% on three-point shots.

The Brooklyn Nets are winning games. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are playing well together. The duo combined for 62 points against the Hornets. Brooklyn has a knack to come up clutch in close games, with an 8-5 record in single-digit games since the start of the regular season.

Murray is out of the Hawks' lineup. Atlanta will struggle to find consistent scoring.
