ATLANTA – The 2021-2022 NBA season is on the horizon and sportsbooks are hosting odds for teams win totals for the year. The Atlanta Hawks win total is set at 47.
Atlanta is coming off of their best season in years, winning 41 games and making it to the Eastern Conference Finals. Because of this, NBA sportsbooks are seeing heavy action on Atlanta winning over 47 games.
The year prior, however, the Hawks only managed 20 wins before the league was shut down due to COVID-19 and the last full 82 game season saw Atlanta go 29-53 on the year.
Atlanta Hawks Regular Season Wins Odds
- OVER 47 Wins -135
- UNDER 47 Wins +105
The big story surrounding Atlanta during their 2020-2021 NBA season is that the Hawks fired head coach Lloyd Pierce after starting the season going 14-20 and sitting at 11th in the Eastern Conference.
After Nate McMillan took over as head coach, Atlanta finished the season going 27-11 and earning the No. 5 seed. This was one of the best records in the league during that stretch of games.
Despite only winning 41 games in the end, sportsbooks are banking on what Atlanta could look like during a full season under McMillan and have adjusted the betting line for the team accordingly.
The odds showing the OVER being favored is interesting as other Eastern Conference teams who have made the playoffs before Atlanta’s breakout season are not seeing such action

Standing In Atlanta’s Way
What the Hawks may run into this NBA season is the league not being surprised by them and expecting Atlanta to actually be a good team.
Prior to last season, Atlanta was constantly in the lottery. The Hawks have shown the league that they are legitimate contenders, so players will go into these games taking Atlanta more seriously.
The rest of the East has also improved. The New York Knicks have added Kemba Walker to its roster, the Miami Heat signed Kyle Lowry, and the Chicago Bulls have added both Lonzo Ball and DeMar DeRozan to their team.
Teams Atlanta easily beat last season have improved, while the Hawks roster is mostly the same. Betting fans looking to take the UNDER with online sportsbooks may find it to be the best way to wager.
