The Washington Wizards and Atlanta Hawks were perceived as two very evenly matched teams ahead of their Eastern Conference first-round series, and they’ve certainly looked the part through five games. With Washington holding a 3-2 series lead, the Wiz can close things out and advance to the next round with a win over Atlanta in Georgia on Friday. Sportsbooks opened the Hawks as 3-point home chalk with a total of 210.
Atlanta is 19-4 SU in its last 23 games when playing at home against Washington
The Wizards are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games as underdog.
The Hawks are 6-0 SU in their last six games at home.
The total has gone OVER in 11 of the Wizards' last 15 games on the road against the Hawks.
The Wizards kept the Hawks from scoring over the final 68 seconds to earn a 103-99 win on Wednesday in Game 5. Atlanta head coach Mike Budenholzer was questioned for why his team didn’t foul and allowed time to run off the clock in the final minute of the contest, which is completely fair considering the huge implications it had.
Bradley Beal was brutal from 3-point land (1-for-9 from downtown) but he found other ways to score in a 27-point effort. His backcourt mate John Wall is averaging 27 points and 10.8 assists in the series while shooting 53.3 percent from beyond the arc.
Home dominance has been the story of this series both on the court and at the betting window, as home sides are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS through five games.Hawks -3
