In a makeup of a postponement from earlier this month, Jalen Green and the Rockets (-6.5) are in Atlanta to face an injury ravaged Hawks team.

The Hawks will be in front of their home fans on Tuesday, but a look at the spread shows they might need that home-court advantage. They and the Houston Rockets will face off at 7:30 p.m. ET at State Farm Arena without much rest after finishing up games yesterday.

Amen Thompson had the clutch go-ahead bucket and Dillon Brooks made a franchise record-tying 10 3-pointers in the Rockets' win over the Celtics on Monday.
