The Atlanta Hawks are exceeding expectations so far this season following their back-to-back wins over postseason-caliber teams and a tight battle with East juggernaut Sixers last Monday. After dropping 38 and 39 in his first two games, Trae Young finished with 25 points on 7-of-20 shooting as the Sixers made a concerted effort to contain him all game long. Nevertheless, the sophomore guard still recorded 9 assists and forward John Collins finished with 16 markers.

Start dropping bets on NBA games at BetNow to win massive payouts. The Hawks are catching teams by surprise this season, thanks to their much-improved offense and defense. Young’s spectacular play is also giving NBA fans and betting buffs reasons to pick the Hawks as a darkhorse playoff contender in the East. As for the Heat, this group of guys has fully embraced Erik Spoelstra’s unselfish basketball philosophy. Justise Winslow is also playing with more effort this season, but it would be interesting how Butler will fit in once he comes back.

Moneyline: The Heat opened at -335 to win Tuesday’s duel against the Hawks. Picking the right team is going to be complicating given their recent forms. However, the Hawks’ performance vs. the Sixers on Monday is giving me an indication that this team is going to be a problem this season.

ATS: The Heat are surprisingly -8 points favorite on ATS betting. Again, I think the Hawks can cover the spread and even steal the game from the Heat, especially if Young erupts again.

TOTALs: The best O/U total for this game is set at 224.5 points. Atlanta is averaging 110.00 points per game while Miami is scoring 120.00 per contest. Both teams thrive in high-scoring games, so I would be surprised if this match falls short of O/U totals.

Score Prediction: 120-116 Hawks
