#NBA Free Pick
(NBA) Atlanta vs. Utah,
Point Spread: 2.50 | -105.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Loss
Play: Atlanta Hawks
Rating: 5*

Both the Utah Jazz and the Atlanta Hawks snapped losing streaks their last time out. I like the Hawks to be the team to win back-to-back games, or at the very least cover the spread here at Vivint Smart Home Arena Friday night.

The Hawks opened a five-game road trip on Wednesday with a 96-85 victory at Indiana. They're 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win and 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings in Utah. Dwight Howard is off to an impressive start in his first season with his hometown team and he's coming off season-highs of 23 points and 20 rebounds against the Pacers.

The Jazz won for the first time in five games when they took down the Nuggets 108-83 on Wednesday. Worth noting though that the Jazz are just 4-17 ATS in their last 21 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 5-13 ATS in their last 18 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. The Hawks have won nine of the last 10 meetings between the two teams, and I predict more success for the Hawks in this contest.
