The Atlanta Hawks complete the second night of a back-to-back on Monday as they take on the Pistons in Detroit. The Hawks have covered in back-to-back games following a surprising seven-point home win over the Bucks on Sunday.

With star point guard Trae Young out, Bogdan Bogdanovic poured in an impressive 32 points, including a sterling 6-for-11 shooting performance from 3-point range.

The Hawks are an impressive 32-26-1 against the spread (ATS) on the season, but they have been less impressive when it comes to hitting the over compared to what you expect from a team with so much offensive firepower.

Detroit has lost four of its last five games and is close to winning their battle to the bottom of the standings among lottery-bound teams. Over the last five games, the Pistons are scoring a paltry 105.2 points per 100 possessions per NBA Advanced Stats.

The Pistons fight hard every night, but simply lack the talent to put up enough points without an outlier shooting night from 3-point range.

With that in mind, it would appear that sharp bettors are keeping an eye on the total for Monday’s Eastern conference matchup between Atlanta and Detroit. Let’s take a look in our latest PRO Report.
