There are only a few NBA slates left before the Play-In Tournament tips off (less than a week away), but there are still plenty of featured matchups to enjoy. That includes tonight’s NBA on ESPN doubleheader headlined by two of the top contenders in the Eastern Conference. So, let’s make the most of it with our best Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions for tonight.

To truly make the most of it, we’ve also hooked you up with more than just Hawks vs. Cavaliers picks courtesy of a GUARANTEED 10x Novig Sportsbook promo code bonus!

🤔 Hawks vs. Cavaliers Predictions for NBA on ESPN, 4/8

At this point in the season, the motivations of teams matter more than just about anything when it comes to locking in NBA expert picks. For example, we saw Cleveland rest James Harden AND Donovan Mitchell two nights ago, so monitoring how they are approaching this game massively affects our Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions.

They were still able to put up a whopping 142 points - albeit against the Memphis Grizzlies - so the Cavs can still snatch the #3 seed from the New York Knicks. As for Atlanta, those same Knicks beat them that same night, which seemingly no one could do as of late. So, how does that affect Hawks vs. Cavaliers picks?

Atlanta can technically still fall back down into a Play-In spot, so they are going to be more motivated than most teams. That’s part of why we took Nickeil Alexander-Walker over 19.5 points on Monday night, and not only did he have 20 at HALFTIME, but we also finished the game with 36 total points!

So, let’s find a spot that is just as valuable for the best bet from our Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions for tonight.

🔥 Hawks vs. Cavaliers Best Bet: Under 236.5 Points (-108 at Novig)

It’s not going to be nearly as easy to do so with the increased variables the end of the regular season brings us. On the polar opposite end of the spectrum, the last time we made Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions was way back in November. They split those meetings straight up, against the spread AND for the over/under.

That only adds to the lack of certainty with this game, so there was certainly consideration for some player props. However, workloads are also a question mark at this point, especially when we still see that Donovan Mitchell is listed as questionable. So, that has us circling back to one of those standard markets with our Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions.

In that regard, we’re going to take the under; that’s not to say a 99-95 game, but this is the second-highest total on the board tonight. Sure, the Cavs can move from the #4 seed to the #3 seed, but is that enough to risk Spida? Similarly, Atlanta can technically fall to the Play-In, but it’s not a likely scenario.

So, while we expect normal starters to begin the game, we may not see full minutes from all of them. It’ll be a sweat, but we’ll lock in under 236.5 points (-108 at Novig) as the best bet from our Hawks vs. Cavaliers predictions.
