Atlanta Hawks (27-20) at Minnesota Timberwolves (17-30)
Atlanta Hawks have struggle on the road, dropping their last three and are a ghastly 9-15 away from home thus far this season. They have won the last two at the Target Center and covered the spread in six of the last seven clashes versus Minnesota, but haven't met with the Timberwolves this season. Take the Wolves on their home court to grab back to back victories. Atlanta is playing below par and has lost four of their last five games. The Hawks did win the last two battles in Minnesota, but did suffer defeat in the prior eight.
Minnesota Timberwolves -2½
