Atlanta Hawks vs. LA Clippers Preview
The Atlanta Hawks got off to a rough 1-3 start. But over the past two weeks, they finally appear to be finding their rhythm. Even with Trae Young sidelined due to injury, the team managed to put together a 4-2 run.
Their most recent stretch was a three-game homestand where they finished 2-1. They picked up convincing wins over the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers, averaging a 17.5 point differential. Their only loss during that span came on November 7 against the Toronto Raptors, falling 109-97.
With a 5-5 record, Atlanta currently sits ninth in the Eastern Conference. The standings are still tight, and they are only one game behind the Miami Heat in the fifth spot.
The LA Clippers, on the other hand, have had a disappointing start to the season. Even though the roster is filled with high-profile names like Kawhi Leonard, James Harden, Bradley Beal, Chris Paul, John Collins, and Brook Lopez, the team has opened the year at 3-6 and is now in the midst of a four-game losing streak.
However, one positive takeaway has been the improved performance of Ivica Zubac. During the last four games, he has averaged 15.0 points, 12.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists.

Atlanta Hawks vs. LA Clippers prediction
Both teams will be missing key players, with the Hawks without Trae Young and the Clippers without Kawhi Leonard. The Clippers have had a tough time without Leonard and have dropped three straight games.
The Hawks may not have as many big names on their roster, but they have enough depth to stay competitive and come out on top.
Prediction: Expect the Hawks to win by five points.
