Tonight’s Action

Hawks at Warriors 

Watch: 10 p.m. ET, ESPN

Odds: Hawks -7 || O/U 219

Pick: The Warriors are missing Stephen Curry and Draymond Green (illness) is questionable. Golden State has dropped three in a row and is 3-7 in its last 10 games. The Hawks traded veteran guard Rajon Rondo for Lou Williams on Thursday, and Williams isn’t expected to make his Atlanta debut until Sunday.

Sports Section likes the Hawks laying the points and the under.

Shoutout: Yesterday, we asked subscribers to predict the winner of Wild-Blues, the score, and the game’s first goal-scorer. Minnesota won 2-0, with Marcus Johansson netting the first goal. 

We hope you followed Sports Section’s advice of taking the Wild on the moneyline and the under-5.5.

Subscriber Mark Jeske (@juicyjeske) was closest to the final score, and no one had Johansson. Way to go, Mark!

Keep the picks coming, everyone!
