Young scores 28 points to lead the Hawks to a 119-115 overtime victory over the struggling Celtics

By KEN POWTAK AP Basketball Writer The Associated Press BOSTON

BOSTON (AP) — Dyson Daniels hit a short jumper in the lane with just over a minute left in overtime and Onyeka Okongwu made two free throws with 11 seconds left, lifting the Atlanta Hawks to a 119-115 victory over the Boston Celtics on Saturday night.

Trae Young led Atlanta with 28 points and 12 assists, and Daniels finished with 23 points.

Jaylen Brown had 24 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists for Boston.

Celtics’ star Jayson Tatum added 23 points after coming into the game listed as questionable with a left shoulder strain. He shot 7 of 21 overall.

After putting up 30 points in a victory over Orlando on Friday, Tatum was flexing his shoulder often when he was talking to a trainer during pregame shootaround. He didn’t seem to take many shots and started the game by missing seven of eight.

Young hit two free throws to tie it with 3.5 seconds left in regulation and Tatum missed a fallaway as the horn sounded. Tatum also missed a 3 late in OT.

Takeaways

Hawks: Young returned to lineup after missing the previous game with a bruised rib. De’Andre Hunter was also back after being out with a sore left foot.

Celtics: With big men Al Horford (left toe sprain) and Kristaps Porzingis (injury management) sidelined, Luke Kornet started and finished with 17 points and seven rebounds in 31 minutes.

Key moment

Tatum and Hunter got into a tussle going for a rebound in OT and had to be separated. The officials didn’t issue any technicals, which was important because Tatum had received one in the second quarter.

Key stat

The Celtics are 8-8 in their last 16 games.

This is how we previewed this game....

Usually we'd be crawling all over Boston for this game, but perhaps surprisingly, both teams have 3-2 records in their last 5 and actually...the Hawks have arguably a more impressive last five results. Clearly home court advantage is going tilt the slope in favour of Boston, but lets take a comparative look at the main stats of thr two teams before we jump into our usual tipping site reviews.

Boston sit 2nd in the Eastern Conference with a 29-12 (71%) record, 5.5 games behind run-away leaders Cleveland. a 15-7 home record isn't overly impressive for the Celtics, showing they are vulnerable in just around a third of home games. a 6-4 last 10 and a W1 streak wraps up the Celtics distinctly meh (by their high standards) season so far.

Atlanta will feel they are probably a few places below where management would have expected at this stage, but lying in 7th with a winning record (21-19) isn't too much of a let down. 13 games behind the Cavs is more down the the super human like Cavs performances rather than anything the Hawks have done or not done. 10-11 on the road isn't disgusting for Atlanta, a 6-4 record in their last 10 matches Boston and they are on a 100% better streak than the Celtics, with a W2 streak.

Despite a patchy season and some well below par performances in recent weeks, the Celtics have regained the favourites mantle with their NBA Championship odds

Boston Celtics - best odds 3.40
Atlanta Hawks - best odds 301.00

Backing Boston makes sense, but the fact that the leagues best team Cleveland can still be got at 10.00 is, frankly insane. We're backing Cleveland. Anyone backing Atlanta at 301.00 or even 30,001.00 is also, frankly, insane.

Lets have a look at what the best tipping sites have to say about Hawks at Celtics game tonight.

Dimers - forecasting a 122-112 win for Boston, tipping the Hawks + 10.5
Clutch Points - TBC
Pickswise - TBC
Sportskeeda - Hawks +11
Betting Odds - estimating a 121-112 win for Boston, tipping Hawks +10.5 and Under 235.5
Sportsline - being bolder than the rest when it comes to forecasting the result, 122-105 for the Celtics is the forecast. Moderate leans to Celtics -11 and Under 235

We like the Under bet tip in this game, 235.5 is a high bar, and the Under is priced better than the Over. We are going to have a value bet on Atlanta. The Celtics played last night, and despite a win and home court advantage they've lost 33% of home games this season, and 5.00 available for Atlanta is too good to miss.

Our value bet tip came home in Overtime, and Overtime wasn't enough to see our Under bet miss.
