Now let's take a look at another NBA game Monday night, the Atlanta Hawks at Utah Jazz.
The Utah Jazz will look to complete a perfect homestand with a win on Monday night against the Atlanta Hawks. Utah could be in for a little bit of a letdown on Monday considering they are coming off a very emotional win on Saturday night against New Orleans. The Jazz defeated the Hornets 102-88 in the first game since owner Larry Miller died. "It's great to win on a night like this. We wanted to win for Larry and the whole Miller family," Deron Williams said. "They're going through a tough time and hopefully this can ease their pain just a little bit for one night." Utah has won eight of the last 10 games overall and Williams has surged along with the team. He has averaged 27.4 points and 10.2 assists in his last nine games. SBG Globalreports that early NBA betting has the public taking Jazz at Home.
Atlanta is 2-2 on their six-game road trip after losing 108-98 to Portland on Friday. Joe Johnson did not shoot the ball well and the Hawks really couldn't stay in the game late. "They made a run in the second half and it really put them over the hump," Johnson said. "We just couldn't recover from it."
The Jazz have won their last 14 home games against the Hawks. Here are more NBA betting stats for Monday's game. The Hawks are 13-6 ATS in their last 19 games as an underdog. The Hawks are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 vs. the Western Conference. The Hawks are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Utah.
