Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Atlanta Hawks Betting Prediction

Spread: Hawks – 5

The team has enough firepower to hang with the Wolves and should feel good with the building buzzing. Trae knows he has to step up and guide his team, silencing all the outside noise. He will have no issue doing exactly that for these guys.

Moneyline: Hawks -210

It is a little less profitable than betting the team to cover, but it’s the right pick. Atlanta has as much riding on this as Minnesota and should be able to hold.
