Atlanta Hawks odds
We don’t print a price for the Hawks here yet. No Canadian sportsbook feed covers the NBA for us, and an American number isn’t a fair guide to what you’ll see in your province.
Where you can bet depends on where you live. Ontario and Alberta have licensed private sportsbooks, and the rest of Canada bets through its provincial lottery platform. Our NBA betting hub explains each province, and the list below is matched to where you are.
Atlanta Hawks history
The franchise began in 1946 as the Buffalo Bisons of the National Basketball League. Within weeks it moved to Moline, Illinois, as the Tri-Cities Blackhawks. The club joined the NBA in 1949. It then moved to Milwaukee in 1951 and to St. Louis in 1955.
St. Louis won the 1958 title, beating Boston 4-2 in the Finals. Bob Pettit scored 50 points in the clinching Game 6. The team moved to Atlanta for the 1968-69 season.
Dominique Wilkins arrived in 1982 and won the 1985-86 scoring title. Trae Young took Atlanta to the 2021 East finals, where Milwaukee won in six. Young was traded to Washington in January 2026. The Hawks still won their division that season.
Most famous player: Dominique Wilkins
Dominique Wilkins holds the Hawks records for points, with 23,292, and for games, with 882. Utah drafted him third overall in 1982, but he played for Atlanta from 1982-83 to 1993-94, and his No. 21 was retired on 13 January 2001.
Bob Pettit still holds the franchise rebounding record, with 12,849. He scored 50 points in Game 6 of the 1958 Finals, when St. Louis won the club’s only title.
