Why the Hawks can cover
The matchup between the Hawks and Thunder on Friday wasn’t a total blowout, but with the Hawks falling 135-119 at home it was close to turning into one. Despite their defeat, the Hawks saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Onyeka Okongwu, who dropped a double-double with 23 points and 13 rebounds, was perhaps the best of all. The team also got some help courtesy of Trae Young, who dropped a double-double with 19 points and 12 assists.
Young has been sensational for the Hawks this season, averaging 23.8 points per game. He’s also averaging 11.4 assists per game, the most in the NBA.

Why the Grizzlies can cover
The point spread may have favored the Grizzlies on Saturday, but the final result did not. They lost 130-128 to the Spurs on a last-minute shot from De’Aaron Fox. The close contest was extra heartbreaking for Memphis, who almost overcame a 22-point deficit.
Despite the loss, the Grizzlies got a productive performance from Jaren Jackson Jr., who went 15 for 25 en route to 42 points, two steals and two blocks. Jackson Jr. is on a roll when it comes to blocks, as he’s now posted two or more in the last three games he’s played.
