Hawks vs Suns Picks and Prediction – 3/22/2024
In a high pace NBA matchup, the Atlanta Hawks are set to take on the Phoenix Suns in what promises to be a thrilling contest between two talented squads. Both teams boast impressive rosters stacked with talent and are vying for crucial wins as they jockey for playoff positioning. Get in on all the action with our free NBA picks.
The Atlanta Hawks (30-38) have lost four of their last five games, and are without their star Trae Young, due to injury. Without his exceptional playmaking ability and scoring prowess, Atlanta just has an unignorable gap in their offense. The Hawks now rely on their forwards, De’Andre Hunter (15.4 PPG) and Clint Capela (11.3 PPG) to elevate their roles and provide output on both ends of the floor. Atlanta is just completely out of their game at the moment and desperately need a win to get right.
On the other side, the Phoenix Suns (39-29) have one of the most talented rosters in the league, but that has not directly translated to wins. Phoenix’s best weapon is their dynamic scoring duo, Devin Booker (27.2 PPG) and Kevin Durant (27.8 PPG). With Booker's scoring ability and Durant’s floor leadership, the Suns boast one of the most potent offensive tandems in the NBA. Additionally, the Suns' depth and defensive prowess, anchored by center Jusuf Nurkic (11 RPG), make them a formidable opponent on both ends of the floor.
