What to Know
After two games on the road, the Hawks are heading back home. Having just played yesterday, they will get right back to it and host the Houston Rockets at 7:30 p.m. ET on February 10th at State Farm Arena. The Rockets took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on the Hawks, who come in off a win.
The oddsmakers set the bar high, but the Hawks and the 76ers didn’t disappoint and broke past the 243.5 point over/under on Friday. Atlanta snuck past the 76ers with a 127-121 win.
The Hawks got their win on the backs of several key players, but it was Trae Young out in front who dropped a double-double on 37 points and 12 assists. Young didn’t help the Hawks’ cause all that much against the Celtics on Wednesday but the same can’t be said for this match. The team also got some help courtesy of Onyeka Okongwu, who scored 21 points along with eight rebounds and two blocks.
Meanwhile, the Rockets’ recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Friday after their third straight defeat. They fell just short of Toronto by a score of 107-104. That’s two games in a row now that the Rockets have lost by exactly three points.
Atlanta’s victory ended a three-game drought on the road and puts them at 23-29. As for Houston, their defeat was their fourth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 23-28.
Saturday’s game is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Hawks haven’t given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.8 turnovers per game. However, it’s not like the Rockets struggle in that department as they’ve been averaging only 12.4 turnovers per game. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
As for their next game, the Hawks are the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 4.5 points. For those looking to play the spread, watch out: Atlanta is expected to win, but their 8-19 record against the spread as such isn’t exactly encouraging.

Suspect sideswipes car, shoots at victim in fit of road rage near airport, Atlanta police say
ATLANTA – A man accused of damaging a car and trying to shoot the driver near the Atlanta airport has been arrested.
Police were called to Hartsfield-Jackson just before 2 p.m. on Wednesday after shots were fired.
The victim told police he dropped a client off at the lower level of the airport’s south terminal and was trying to leave when another driver “became irate.” The victim said the driver sideswiped his car, shot at him and then sped away.
The victim sustained minor injuries and damage to his vehicle.
Through a quick canvass of the area, police located the suspect in the commercial area of 4210 Moreland Avenue SE, about 10 miles away from the scene.
The suspect was identified as 39-year-old Eric Freeman. He is expected to face criminal charges.
The Source: The information in this article was provided by an Atlanta Police Department report.
Before the New York Yankees signed left-handed pitcher Max Fried to an eight-year, $218 million contract, the Athletics were reportedly among the most aggressive teams in pursuit of him.
Believe or not, one of the most aggressive teams in the Max Fried sweepstakes were the Athletics before he signed his 8-year, $218 million deal with the Yankees.

It is unclear if the A’s ever made an official offer to Max Fried and, if they did, what the contract terms were, but we can speculate that the offer was made if the A’s were “one of the most aggressive teams” in pursuit of the dominant lefty.
This news comes just five days after the A’s uncharacteristically spent big money and signed right-hander Luis Severino to the biggest deal in franchise history: a three-year $67 million deal.
So, the question has to be asked: if the A’s are reportedly willing to pursue one of the best pitchers on the market, what is their next move?
The A’s are after starting pitching, with some of the bigger names off the market, who could they go after next? Sean Manaea was rumored to be an A’s target before they pivoted to Severino, and with Manaea still unsigned, they could resume their pursuit. Corbin Burnes and Jack Flaherty sure seemed like “unrealistic” targets before the news of Fried. The Athletics could pivot and make a splash landing another top right-handed pitcher.
Nick Pivetta and Trevor Williams are interesting right-handed pitchers who performed well in 2024 before their injuries. The A’s may be able to sign one of them to a short-term contract, like Severino’s, and have a solid one-two punch leading their rotation.
The A’s want to up their payroll to around $100 million, and after the Severino deal and projected arbitration contracts, the payroll sits at around $78.44 million. If the A’s seriously want to get their payroll near $100 million, they have a good chunk of money to offer to free agents. They’ll also have incentive to reach that magical number.
While pitching is the biggest need for the A’s, they have some holes in the lineup and on the field. Eventually, they will have to make some upgrades there as well, and they have a lot of options in free agency.
