There are six games on the NBA slate Sunday including the Atlanta Hawks and Toronto Raptors playing for the first time this season.
Atlanta is completing a back-to-back set having won 120-110 versus the Heat on Saturday while the Raptors have been off since getting trounced 126-155 by the Grizzlies on Thursday.
Season Series
Last season, the teams split the four-game regular season series while the teams are in an unusual situation of each having won on 53 occasions splitting the all-time record for the moment.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Saturday, December 28th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, December 29th.
Atlanta Hawks
After losing three in a row the Hawks got back on track winning the last three contests against a duo of solid squads (Wolves, Heat) and one strong perimeter shooting team (Bulls).
To that end, as good as their offense has been they have struggled against clubs who shoot well from the perimeter. That is unlikely to be an issue against the Raptors who rank 23rd in efficiency from deep.

Hawks Stats
This season the Hawks rank 21st offensively (110.6), and 18th defensively (113.2) while also possessing the 19th ranked net differential of minus -2.6.
Atlanta’s performance against the spread is 13-18 record through 31 matches.
Hawks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Larry Nance Jr., PF (OUT — hand)
- Bogdan Bogdanovic, SG (was OUT Saturday/questionable Sunday— lower leg)
- Dyson Daniels, G (was OUT Saturday/questionable Sunday — illness)
- Onyeka Okongwu, PF (was OUT Saturday/questionable Sunday— knee)
- Cody Zeller, C (OUT indefinitely — personal)
- Kobe Bufkin, PG (OUT for season — shoulder)
Toronto Raptors
Eleven teams have played between 17 and 21 clutch time games while Toronto joins two others (Nuggets, Mavericks) who’ve played 16 clutch time matches. The glaring difference for Toronto is they fail to convert those opportunities with just four wins out of the 16 (second worst).
The obvious response is this is a young squad but the reality is they have yet to play a single minute with the proposed preseason starting unit of Barnes, Quickley, Barrett, Dick, and Poeltl so it’s hard to assess just how good (or bad) they truly are.
Raptors Stats
Toronto ranks 22nd on offense (110.4) and tied for 23rd on defense (115.5) while they register a minus -5.1 net differential ranking 25th overall.
The Raptors are riding the middle ground possessing a 19-11-1 record against the spread in 31 games this season.
Raptors Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jakob Poeltl, C (questionable— groin)
- JaKobe Walter, SG (questionable — illness)
- Bruno Fernando, PF (questionable — toe
- Davion Mitchell, PG (questionable — illness)
- Jamal Shead, PG (Day-To-Day — knee)
- Bruce Brown, SF (questionable — knee)
- Immanuel Quickley, PG (OUT — elbow)

Free NBA Prediction:
Eventually, Toronto will end the losing streak but it is hard to envision that occurring while Poeltl is still out. He is listed as questionable but didn’t practice with the team Saturday so it’s unlikely he plays.
Even with the Hawks at the rest disadvantage, I like them to win and cover although historically these two clubs play close matches.
