Miami Heat
Atlanta aims to capitalize on Miami's injury setbacks
Grade B: Atlanta Hawks Moneyline (+122)

The Atlanta Hawks, fresh off a 98-86 victory over the Miami Heat, look to continue their momentum as they face the Heat once more at the Kaseya Center. In their recent encounter, Trae Young recorded his 34th double-double of the season, contributing 11 points and 14 assists, while Onyeka Okongwu added 17 points and eight rebounds. The Heat, struggling with shooting accuracy—hitting only 7 of 40 three-point attempts—are further hindered by the loss of forward Nikola Jovic, who is sidelined for at least four weeks due to a fractured right hand. With both teams having played over 50 games, this matchup holds significant playoff implications, as the Hawks and Heat are vying for positioning in the Eastern Conference standings. Considering Atlanta's recent performance and Miami's injury challenges, betting on the Hawks' moneyline at +122 offers value. This wager receives a grade of B, reflecting a favorable likelihood of an Atlanta victory with a reasonable return on investment.
