Predictions, Odds, and Betting Preview for the Atlanta Hawks vs Brooklyn Nets NBA Regular Season Game on March 31, 2023
- Where: Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York
- When: Friday, March 31, 2023, 7:30 PM E.T.
Betting on the Atlanta Hawks
- Season record: 38-38
Although the campaign is now in its final stretch, the Hawks still can’t find the stability that was expected of them, going back and forth between wins and losses in their last eight games and coming into this game with a .500 record after achieving an impressive 118-120 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers in their previous game.
Even so, they are currently sitting in eighth place in the Eastern Conference and firmly occupying one of the play-in spots, which they seem unlikely to lose considering they are 4.0 games behind the eleventh-place team.
Getting their record back above .500 may prove to be a challenge for the Hawks in this game, especially since they’ve had evident struggles playing as visitors this season. They’ve left a trail of 16 wins and 22 losses, and have allowed an average of 119.1 points per game.
Betting on the Brooklyn Nets
- Season record: 41-35
As for the Nets, they’re no longer the intimidating team they once were when Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were both healthy. However, they’ve managed to somehow stay within the top six teams in the Eastern Conference, which is surprising considering they entered this week with just two wins in eight games.
They need to forget their recent slump and turn things around quickly before the playoffs start. Being at home could help them achieve that, since they have a record of 21 wins and 12 losses in their own arena, even though five of their last four wins came on the road..
If the Nets are going to make a comeback, it’s likely going to come from the hands of Mikal Bridges and Spencer Dinwiddie, who have been the team’s most important player in recent months, averaging 26.8 and 17.1 points per game, respectively, since joining Brooklyn.
JefeBet Prediction
Despite not having the best results in recent weeks, the Hawks are a talented team that is in much better form than the struggling Nets.
Offense has been a major problem for the Nets lately, averaging just 112.5 points per game in March. This is something the Hawks will appreciate, since they tend to be fairly lenient on defense. So, while the Nets could put up a fight, we expect Young and Dejounte Murray to lead the Hawks to victory in this game against an opponent that does not generate any confidence.
Prediction: Atlanta Hawks Spread (ATL 118-113 BRO).
