Hawks Struggling In The Great White North

If history is any indication, the slumping Atlanta Hawks may have a difficult time ending their current five-game losing streak when they visit the Toronto Raptors Saturday. The Hawks are 1-5 SU and ATS in their past six games at the ACC, a locale they will visit twice in the next two weeks.

  • The UNDER is 9-1 in the Hawks past 10 games.
  • DeMarre Carroll will be in the lineup for the Raptors after sitting out Friday.

Kyle Lowry is in the middle of his best stretch of play all season, as the point guards has averaged 25.7 points while shooting 68.7 percent from the floor in the past three.
