13th in the Western Conference, the Rockets have experienced a period of renewal recently and have thus won 7 of their last 10 games, but remain on 2 consecutive losses. Atlanta, however, does not seem the ideal opponent to start again: the Hawks are 9th in the Eastern Conference, with 1 victory behind Charlotte, and will want to revive after their loss to Brooklyn (105-113) in the night from Friday to Saturday. Watch this NBA game tonight at 1:30 am.

Atlanta Hawks: topicality and form
The Hawks are having a fairly hectic season and are not up to expectations: Atlanta had indeed finished in 5th place in the Eastern Conference last season and achieved a very good run in the playoffs, reaching the conference final against Milwaukee (4-2). This edition is much more complicated: Trae Young’s teammates have 13 wins and 13 losses on the clock and have won 6 of their last 10 meetings. Defeated during their last meeting, the Hawks will therefore want to revive and take advantage of Houston’s poor shape.
Houston Rockets: News and Form
As for the Rockets, the season had started extremely badly with only one victory in the first 16 meetings and a last place seeming doomed to them. Houston, however, showed character and won 7 games in a row, winning in particular against the Bulls (118-113), the Hornets (146-143) or even against the Nets (114-104), leaders of the Eastern Conference. This great series was however interrupted by the Bucks (114-123) and the Grizzlies (113-106) and the Rockets must now revive, while the Spurs, 12th, have 2 wins in advance.
Houston is traveling very badly this season with only one victory in 13 trips and should logically win against a superior Atlanta team in all areas of the game. The Hawks may indeed not do in detail and a victory of ‘Atlanta therefore seems inevitable.

The Rockets player remains on 2 consecutive games with more than 20 points and should repeat this performance tonight against an Atlanta team that has been too irregular defensively since the start of the season. Seeing him score at least 20 points seems logical, but the Hawks still seem too strong and should win.
