The Atlanta Hawks are just a half game out of first place in the Eastern Conference, and with Toronto playing at Golden State tonight, they have a chance to move ahead of the Raptors with a win on the road at Utah. The Jazz are coming off a 100-94 win over the Timberwolves on Tuesday, but they still have a losing record at home.

Here are my keys to the game:

1: Jeff Teague - He's scored 48 points and dished out 18 assists over his last two starts, wins over Cleveland and Milwaukee.

2. Road Warriors - The Hawks have a road record of 9-5, and they've won four straight away from home.

3. X-Factor - The Hawks have won seven straight versus Utah, covering the spread in five of those seven games.

Selection: This is a play on the Atlanta Hawks (10*)
