So far, in history, the Heat holds the all-time record having bested the Hawks in 74 of their 131 matches. To that end, the teams played four times last season with Miami taking three of the four contests.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Sunday evening, January 15th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, January 16th.
Miami Heat
To begin with, it was surprising Giannis Antetokounmpo sat again in Miami and perhaps more surprising the Bucks struggled so mightily to score in the second game of the baseball set.
Granted all five starters scored in double-figures but still were outscored 81 to 66 by the Heat starters. Gabe Vincent and Bam Adebayo led the way with 27 and 20 points.
Stats
So far, offensively, the Heat score 108.8 points per game (30th rank) shooting 45.2% from the field (27th) and 34.0% from the perimeter (24th).
As can be seen, defensively, the Heat allow opponents to score 108.5 points per game ranking second overall. Also, Miami opponents shoot 47.3% from the field and 36.6% from the perimeter ranking 18th and 24th respectively.
Another key point, Udonis Haslem (Achilles) is probable, Caleb Martin (quadriceps strain) is questionable and Kyle Lowry (knee) is out Monday. Additionally, Duncan Robinson (finger), Nikola Jovic (back), and Omer Yurtseven (ankle surgery) are out indefinitely.
Atlanta Hawks
Snapping a cold streak of five losses in six the Hawks have won three of their last four games including the back-to-back set versus the Pacers and Raptors on the road.
Once again the Raptors got exposed by a speedy backcourt with Trae Young leading the way scoring 29 points. Also, he acted his way into two fouls against Pascal Siakam the latter being the foul that sent the Raptors star from the game.
Dejounte Murray was solid with 27 points, eight rebounds, six assists, and two steals.
To summarize the injury report, AJ Griffin got the bragging rights at home against his father who is an assistant coach for the Raptors. Also, in the last game, it was AJ who scored the winning basket with no time left on the clock and he scored 13 in Toronto.
Stats
Atlanta ranks 11th in scoring, averaging 114.9 points per game while they shoot 46.8%, from the field and 33.7% from the perimeter ranking 19th and 27th respectively
Also, on defense, opponents score 115.9 points ranking 20th while foes register 47.0% field goal percentage and 34.2% perimeter percentage ranking 14th and fourth respectively.
Trae Young (shoulder) is probable while Clint Capela (calf) is questionable for Monday.

Free Miami Heat vs. Atlanta Hawks NBA Prediction:
Atlanta has won four of six while the Heat has won three in a row as well as six of eight so both clubs have been trending upward.
If Young uses his typical ref baiting as he did in Toronto dropping to the ground and rolling in pain on a phantom foul, the Heat are the type of squad who’ll foul him hard on the very next play so it’s doubtful he’ll flop (as much) in this match.
