Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Knicks prepare to face the Hawks, Jalen Brunson's scoring might not reach the lofty heights of 37.5 points. Despite having a solid home average of 25.2 points over his last five games, his overall trend against the Hawks suggests a different narrative. Historically, Brunson has netted just 23.2 points on average in Madison Square Garden when matched against Atlanta, and the pressure of a high-stakes game could lead to a more team-oriented approach.Moreover, his recent form shows a hit rate of 20 for 20 on unders, and at home, he's hit the under in his last ten outings. With the Knicks likely to emphasize ball movement and defense, it's reasonable to expect Brunson to stay under this inflated mark. Betting on the under could be a savvy play as he finds his rhythm without necessarily needing to be in the spotlight.

With an average of just 23.2 points at home against the Hawks and his overall hit rate sitting firmly at 100% for the last 20 games, the under on 43.5 looks enticing. Expect a calculated game from Brunson, where he may not quite reach that lofty total.
