Hawks pay a visit to unbeaten Hornets

Basketball Betting Lines

11/05/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A battle of unbeatens is on tap tonight at New Orleans Arena, where the Hornets will host the Atlanta Hawks.

New Orleans has won its first three games of the 2008-09 season and recorded a 104-92 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday. All-Star guard Chris Paul scored 24 points and dished out 15 assists while shooting 7-for-13 from the field and making 10-of-11 free throws.

David West contributed 25 points and sixth man James Posey had 15 for the Hornets in the home opener. Starters Peja Stojakovic and Tyson Chandler both missed Saturday's game with sprained ankles and are probable for Wednesday.

The Hawks, meanwhile, are off to a 2-0 start and haven't won their first three games of a season since the 1997-98 campaign.

Atlanta battled back on Saturday to defeat the visiting Philadelphia 76ers, 95-88, at Philips Arena. Joe Johnson scored 35 points and buried a clutch three-pointer late in the game to help Atlanta overcome a 23-point deficit.

Josh Smith added 14 points and 11 rebounds while Mike Bibby added 19 points for the Hawks, who won their season-opener on Wednesday at Orlando.

In injury news for the Hawks, guard Speedy Claxton (hamstring/left knee surgery) is questionable against New Orleans.

New Orleans went 2-0 against the Hawks last year and has won four straight, six of seven and 10 of the past 15 meetings.

The Hawks have dropped three in a row as the guest in this series.
