Boston @ Atlanta

Current Records: Boston 7-7; Atlanta 6-9

What to Know

The Atlanta Hawks will stay at home another game and welcome the Boston Celtics at 7:30 p.m. ET Nov. 17 at State Farm Arena. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

The Hawks didn’t have too much trouble with the Orlando Magic at home on Monday as they won 129-111. Atlanta’s center Clint Capela looked sharp as he posted a double-double on 20 points and 16 rebounds. That makes it four consecutive games in which Capela has had at least 12 rebounds. Capela’s points were the most he has had all season.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn’t a dominant performance, the Celtics beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 98-92 on Monday. Boston can attribute much of their success to small forward Jayson Tatum, who had 23 points and five assists in addition to eight boards, and power forward Al Horford, who had 17 points along with nine rebounds.

The Hawks are the favorite in this one, with an expected 4-point margin of victory. They hadn’t treated bettors all too well in the past (they are 5-10), but they might be worth taking a chance on now after beating the spread two games in a row.

The wins brought Atlanta up to 6-9 and Boston to 7-7. Atlanta is 2-3 after wins this year, the Celtics 3-3.
