Atlanta Hawks vs Houston Rockets Preview

The Hawks have continued to be an average squad akin to the preceding seasons. Trae Young has continued to be a significant contributor as a scorer and passer, while the team has found a significant defensive contributor, Dyson Daniels.

However, they have lost three or more games in a row four times already, an issue that has plagued the franchise in the Young era. As of now, the Hawks are in the ninth spot, hanging to a Play-in spot.

The Rockets have finally arrived on the scene, just a few years after the James Harden golden age.

While they play an isolation-heavy basketball led by Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green(28th in assists per game with 22 APG), they also have huge sparkplugs in Amen Thompson and Dillon Brooks. The Rockets hustle hard and are #1 in offensive rebounds with 14.5 ORPG. They are currently the #2 squad in the West.

Atlanta Hawks vs Houston Rockets– Final Prediction and Additional Information

The Hawks are 10-7 at home but the Rockets boast of a 12-5 record away from home. The latest win against Grizzlies on the road would have boosted the Rockets’ confidence further. While the Rockets may sneak a win, it may come within a margin of 5-8 points.

Jalen Green is in the midst of a terrific scoring streak and the porous Hawks defense will allow him to extend his hot hand. Apart from that, Alperen Sengun is perhaps the most reliable all-around option in terms of fantasy points.

Hi, I am Shubham. I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats. I got into NBA writing through social media interactions in the mid-2010s as I shared my takes on young talents such as D’Angelo Russell. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!
