Jalen Johnson (Atlanta Hawks) Under 10.5 Rebounds (-109)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Atlanta Hawks face off against the New York Knicks, all eyes will be on Jalen Johnson, especially in the rebounding department. Despite averaging 11.2 rebounds over the last five games, his away performance tells a different story-he's pulled down just 10 rebounds per game on the road. More telling is his track record against the Knicks: while he averages a solid 11.4 against them overall, that number dips to 9.8 when playing in their arena. With the Knicks' frontcourt showing resilience, Johnson may struggle to find those second-chance opportunities. The stats suggest a clear trend; he's hit the under in four of his last five away games, a trend that aligns with his current expected stat value of just 9.28. Given these dynamics, betting on the under 10.5 rebounds seems to be the smart move as we navigate this matchup.

Landry Shamet (New York Knicks) Over 7.5 Points + Rebounds (+101)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Knicks prepare to host the Hawks, Landry Shamet is poised for a breakout performance that could exceed the 7.5 points and rebounds threshold. While his recent averages might not jump off the page-6.6 points and 1.4 rebounds over the last five games-there's more to the story. At home, Shamet has proven to be a different player, averaging 7 points and 1.6 rebounds against the Hawks specifically. Take note of his impressive hit rate: he's gone over this line in 10 of his last 12 home games. With the Knicks looking to solidify their playoff standing, expect Shamet to step up. With his expected stat value at 10.73, the numbers strongly suggest he'll not only meet but exceed that 7.5 mark, making this an enticing bet as he embraces the home crowd's energy.

Mikal Bridges (New York Knicks) Over 19.5 Points + Rebounds (+217)

When Mikal Bridges takes the court for the Knicks against the Hawks, there's every reason to believe he'll rise to the occasion. Historically, Bridges has showcased his scoring prowess, especially at home, where he's averaged a solid 22.4 points per game against Atlanta. With the pressure of a home crowd behind him, he tends to elevate his game.While his recent numbers might suggest a dip, averaging 14.8 points and 2.4 rebounds over his last five, context is key. In matchups against the Hawks, he's proven he can deliver in a big way. With an expected stat value hovering just below our target, and his overall hit rate against Atlanta creeping up, it feels like he's due for a breakout performance. Given the stakes and the energy of Madison Square Garden, I'm confident Bridges will push past that 19.5 mark in points plus rebounds. Let's take this bet!
