Free Atlanta Hawks vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Prediction:
Monday, December 23rd, the Atlanta Hawks face the Cleveland Cavaliers in the clubs first meeting of the 2019-20 season.
Last season, the teams played three times with the Hawks taking two of the three contests. The Hawks hold the all-time record having bested the Cavaliers in 123 of their 227 matches
Atlanta Hawks
Trae Young entered full-on beast mode dropping 47 points, six assists and eight rebounds but it wasn’t enough to gain the victory over the Nets as the Hawks lost for the seventh consecutive time.

Alex Len delivered a double-double of 23 points and 14 rebounds while De’Andre Hunter scored 14 points as the only other double-figure contributor for the Hawks in the match.
The loss to the Nets was particularly tough given Atlanta took a 13 point lead at the half and held onto it entering the final frame only to be outscored by 23 points in the fourth. The Hawks shot 2 for 24 from the perimeter in the second half which certainly didn’t help the situation.
John Collins has completed his suspension and should be active for this game.
On the season, Young is the team leader in points (29.0) and assists (8.4). Parker tops the team in rebounds (6.3), field goal percent (57.0) and steals (1.4). Damian Jones is the top block man with 0.9 per game.
Evan Turner didn’t play Saturday due to a right hamstring strain while Chandler Parson has missed three games with flu-like symptoms and right wrist inflammation. Both are listed as questionable for Monday.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Kevin Love came close to being put on a poster Friday night when rookie Ja Morant jumped over him but missed what would’ve been the greatest dunk of the season. After the fact, Love joked Morant almost ended my career.
In the win over the Grizzlies, the Cavaliers utilized balanced scoring with five players producing double-digit efforts plus Collin Sexton scoring one point short of making it six.
The win required the Cavaliers to come from behind after Memphis outscored Cleveland 36-26 in the third quarter to take a six-point lead into the final frame.
Double-double efforts by Kevin Love (21 points, 13 rebounds) and Tristan Thompson (10 points, 15 rebounds) led the way for the Cavaliers while Jordan Clarkson was the high scorer with 33 points Darius Garland (14) and Cedi Osman (13) were the other double-figure contributors.
As for team leaders, Collin Sexton tops scoring with 17.6 points, Darius Garland (3.1) is the assists leader 3.1, Kevin Love tops rebounds (10.8), and Cedi Osman leads for steals (1.0). Tristan Thompson leads two stat categories besting the field goal percentage with 51.8 percent as well as 1.0 blocks.
Dylan Windler is out with a left tibial stress reaction to his shin that will keep him out of the lineup until the New Year.
NBA Betting Trends:
- The teams are 5-5 ATS in their last 10
- The Hawks are 6-4 in last 10 head to head

Free Atlanta Hawks vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Prediction:
With Collins back in the lineup for the Hawks, either Atlanta will reap immediate rewards with a player who can score and help defensively or they’ll struggle initially to work him back into the flow of their system.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Hawks ATS
I’m leaning toward that initial momentum shift Collins will bring and therefore hedging on Hawks stealing one in Cleveland.
