Jalen Johnson - NBA Tips

After Atlanta just knocked off the Eastern 1 seed twice in consecutive matches, I’ve noticed its not just Trae Young that the Hawks are relying on.

Best Bet

Atlanta Hawks @ Charlotte Hornets (10:00am)

Jalen Johnson
Over 19.5 Points

JJ has been nothing short of incredible this season and if you didn’t know him at the start of the year, you must by now. The Hawks have just knocked off the Cleveland Cavaliers twice in a row handing them only their second and third loss for the season.

Johnson has exploded this season and is a real focal point of everything Atlanta are doing. Threatening triple doubles regularly, he seems to now know his role within the team and is carrying the Hawks at both ends of the floor.

A triple scoring threat, he doesn’t just have one string to his bow, with multiple three pointers across his last 5 games and also the ability to drive and get free points from the stripe. Averaging 22.5 points per game over the last fortnight and also has cleared this line all 4 of his last 4 games.

SGM – Hawks win/ Johnson 20+ Points/ Young 10+ Assists = $3.50


Next Best

Dallas Mavericks @ Utah Jazz (01:30pm)

John Collins
Over 8.5 Rebounds

Collins has been serving us well of late and here we go back in for some rebounds. Three games in a row now JC has gone double digits with the lowest being a 13. Each one of those games he has had a full 33 minutes, and is making an impact for Utah.

The return of Walker Kessler didn’t have as much of an impact as I first expected. Over the last 8 games Collins is averaging 10.4 rebounds off of 17.3 rebound chances.

Teams have been enjoying higher than average rebounding games against Dallas and I’m predicting JC to keep cleaning the glass in this one.

SGM – Collins 8+ Rebounds/ Washington 15+ Points/ Markkanen 15+ Points = $3.30


Value Bet

Washington Wizards @ Milwaukee Bucks (12:00pm)

Damian Lillard
10+ Assists

It took a while but it looks like Dame and Giannis have figured out how to be highly effective together. Lillard has been  special over his last five games clearing this bet in 4/5. His usage rating is up to nearly 30% and he is hardly coming off for a rest.

If Giannis plays, it only helps the argument because what we may lose in usage we gain in potential assists to the Greek Freak. Lopez has been solid for Milwaukee and with Washington’s young defence, we might see a few uncontested threes hopefully off a Lillard pass. Averaging 9.8 assists per game over the last fortnight, this is worth a shot.

SGM – Lillard 8+ Assists/ Giannis 30+ Points/ Lopez 10+ Points = $5.00
