Hawks vs Cavaliers Recent Meetings

Prediction
With the Cavaliers virtually locked into the four-seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs, there isn’t much to play for. Cleveland is also monitoring the minutes of James Harden and Donovan Mitchell down the stretch. Atlanta is the fifth-seed right now, but could fall all the way to 10 if they’re not careful. The Hawks have been a really solid road team this season and have more to play for than the Cavs. I’ll take the points.
Pick: Hawks +2.5
