When the New York Knicks take on the Atlanta Hawks, all eyes should be on Miles McBride and his prop bet for over 3.5 points.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Knicks gear up to face the Hawks, Jalen Brunson's recent form suggests a cautious approach to his points and assists total. Averaging 22.6 points and 8.6 assists over his last five games, Brunson's combined contributions paint a picture that leans toward the under. Particularly at home, where he's netted 25.2 points and 6.6 assists, the expectation is that his output might stall against Atlanta's defense, which has historically kept him in check. In their last 20 matchups, he's hit this mark only when the game script favors an offensive explosion-in other words, not tonight. 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.
Jalen Brunson (New York Knicks) Under 37.5 Points (-120)
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.
Jalen Brunson (New York Knicks) Under 40.5 Points + Rebounds (-102)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Knicks gear up to face the Hawks, all eyes will be on Jalen Brunson, but betting under 40.5 on his combined points and rebounds makes a lot of sense. Despite being a solid contributor, Brunson's recent averages suggest he might not hit that lofty total. Over his last five games, he's been netting about 22.6 points and grabbing 2.8 rebounds, which collectively puts him under that threshold. At home, he's stepped it up slightly with 25.2 points, yet his rebounds dwindle to only 1.2. Historically, against the Hawks, he's averaged just 23.2 points and 2.8 boards at Madison Square Garden. Given his perfect hit rate of 20 for 20 on the under across his last matches, the trends suggest he may struggle to surpass 40.5 against a tough Atlanta defense. It's a calculated play that feels right in this matchup.

As the Detroit Pistons gear up to face the Orlando Magic, all eyes are on Cade Cunningham. However, betting under 36.5 points and assists for him feels like a savvy play. Recent trends show that while he's been a standout at home, his averages have dipped to 18.4 points and 11.6 assists over the last five games at Little Caesars Arena, putting him comfortably below our target.Moreover, facing Orlando, he's averaged just 26.4 points and 8.2 assists at home against them, both numbers shy of our threshold. It's hard to ignore that he's hit this under in four straight outings, showcasing a consistent pattern. With an expected stat value landing at 27.22 and a solid hit rate, it seems prudent to side with the under as Cunningham navigates a tough matchup against a Magic defense that could limit his contributions.
