Suns vs Hawks prediction
At least one of these teams will have their winning streak snapped Sunday evening.
Both squads have had the past two days off, so the guys healthy enough to play should be well-rested.
At the time of writing, the Hawks have a top-five defensive rating in all of basketball, allowing 111 points per 100 possessions.
The Suns offensive rating, meanwhile, has crept into the top-10 in the league at the time of writing.
Even without Trae Young, this should be a decent test for a Suns team that seems to be putting the pieces together.
Prediction: Suns win 117-110
