New York Knicks vs Atlanta Hawks: prediction for the NBA match
In the upcoming match, the New York Knicks, who have 23 wins in 42 head-to-head confrontations against the Atlanta Hawks, will try to win again. By the way, in the current season, the game between these teams in Atlanta on November 28th, 2021 ended with a score of 90:99.
New York Knicks
Milwaukee continues to perform without Adetokunbo. Giannis is still on the COVID protocol, so the Bucks have not played in recent matches. But his absence did not prevent the team from winning several victories. It is worth noting that Chris Middleton returned to the court in the last match. His return helped the Reindeer defeat Dallas on the road (102:95). Chris himself became the best player of the meeting. In 31 minutes on the floor, Middleton scored 26 points and also made five rebounds and seven assists.
Atlanta Hawks
Hawks played out to the point that they were on the tenth line of the Eastern Conference. The team simply cannot withstand the competition, as eight players are in the infirmary, including the leader of the club, Trey Young. In the previous confrontation, Atlanta snatched the victory from Philadelphia (98-96). The match took place on the road, but Cameron Reddish and the company did not stop this. However, that evening luck was on the side of the guests. Nate McMillan is faced with the task of returning the hawks to their place in the top six, so there is a lot of work.
Prediction
Atlanta is doing well away, as the last six away matches ended in victory. On the other hand, the Hawks have lost a lot of key players and in the previous meeting it was evident that the club lacks reinforcement. Nate McMillan and the team are going for victory, but they will have to confront a motivated opponent. New York has no choice but to go all-in and return to the fight. Derrick Rose is close to returning to the floor, which is a big plus for the Knicks. In our opinion, the hosts have a better chance of achieving the desired result at the home arena of Madison Square Garden. Our prediction is the victory of the New York Knicks, taking into account overtime at odds of 1.63 at BC 1xBet. We assume that in such a situation, in which the rivals are now, no one will feel sorry for anyone. Both teams are focused on winning, so we expect to see a real spectacle in New York.
