Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Knicks gear up to host the Atlanta Hawks, Landry Shamet stands out as a compelling player prop option for going over 6.5 points and rebounds. Shamet has been a reliable contributor, particularly at home, boasting an impressive track record with a hit rate of 10 out of his last 12 games on his turf. While he averages just under 7 points and 1.4 rebounds in his recent outings, his performance against Atlanta has shown promise, notably scoring an average of 7 points per game when playing in New York. With the Hawks giving up opportunities on the perimeter, Shamet's role is likely to expand, especially in a high-stakes matchup where every possession counts. Given his overall consistency, including a remarkable 13 out of 17 hits in the last stretch, it's clear that hitting the over on this prop feels not just possible, but likely.

Mikal Bridges (New York Knicks) Over 17.5 Points + Rebounds (+134)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Mikal Bridges is poised for a breakout game against the Atlanta Hawks, especially with the Knicks hosting at Madison Square Garden. While his recent averages show 14.8 points and 2.4 rebounds, the numbers tell a deeper story. At home, he has upped his performance to 12.6 points and 1.4 rebounds, but against Atlanta, he's typically a different beast. His recent home matchups against the Hawks show an impressive 22.4 points and 3.6 rebounds on average. Bridges thrives in these high-stakes moments, and with an expected stat value nudging close to 19, the 17.5 mark feels like a sweet spot. Given his history against this opponent and the home-court advantage, backing Bridges to exceed the 17.5 threshold seems not just reasonable-it feels inevitable. So, let's ride this wave and expect Bridges to deliver a solid performance this Saturday.

Jalen Johnson (Atlanta Hawks) Under 12.5 Rebounds (-345)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As Jalen Johnson gears up to face the New York Knicks, the trends suggest we should lean toward the under on his rebounds, set at 12.5. Despite his impressive average of 11.2 rebounds over the last five games, he's only pulling down 10 boards on the road. When squaring off against tough competition like the Knicks, that number drops further to around 9.8 when playing away.Historically, Johnson has thrived at home but has shown vulnerability on the road, with an 88.9% hit rate on this under in his last nine away games. With the Knicks' stout defense and a formidable rebounding frontcourt, it's hard to envision him reaching that threshold. Given these factors, betting the under on Johnson's rebounds feels like a smart play for Saturday's matchup.

Mitchell Robinson (New York Knicks) Under 12.5 Rebounds (-500)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Knicks gear up to host the Hawks, all eyes will be on Mitchell Robinson. While he's been a formidable presence in the paint, the numbers suggest a different story when it comes to rebounding against Atlanta. His recent averages have been solid-7.8 rebounds overall and 8.8 at home-but here's where it gets telling: he's only managed an average of 9 boards against the Hawks in their last few encounters at Madison Square Garden.Consider this: Robinson's overall hit rate for hitting the under on 12.5 rebounds is a staggering 11 for 11 in his last games, and he's yet to eclipse that number in a home matchup against Atlanta. With expectations set at just 8.75, betting the under on Robinson feels like a smart play. The stats don't lie, and on Saturday, they paint a picture of a player likely to fall short of that 12.5 mark.
