This will be the fourth meeting between the Hawks and Wizards this season, with the latter leading 2-1 SU and ATS, winning their last two meetings after dropping the season-opener in Atlanta. That loss was before the Hawks sent Kyle Korver (40.9% 3-point percentage) to the Cavaliers in early January. However, Atlanta added some talent at the trade deadline, picking up two-way power forward Ersan Ilyasova from the Philadelphia 76ers.
Washington also made a move to bolster their playoff run, acquiring Bogan Bogdanovich (45.8% from long range) from the Brooklyn Nets at the deadline, and they firmed up their bench by signing point guard Brandon Jennings when the New York Knicks cut him on March 1st. Washington’s biggest addition was the return of Ian Mahinmi from the injured list on February 8th. The Wizards are 12-6 SU since his return, but just 6-11-1 ATS.

Both teams have been horribly lately against the spread, but Atlanta usually ups their game against teams with winning records. Atlanta has covered six of their last eight versus teams with a .600 winning percentage or better. Look for this to be a close game as both teams are eager to get back on the winning track.
