The Nets won their 9th straight game 125-117 on Monday in Cleveland. This will be the second of three regular season meetings, Brooklyn prevailed 120-116 at home on December 9th. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 PM EST/4:30 PST.
Hawks Hope For Bounce Back
The Atlanta Hawks record dipped back to .500 at 17-17 after getting dismantled last night in Indiana. Atlanta was out-rebounded 49-42 and outscored in the paint 60-46. John Collins led the team in scoring with 26 points to go along with 10 rebounds.
Trae Young added a 22 point, 10 assist double-double while Bojan Bogdonavic chipped in with 18 points. The Hawks are slightly above average offensively as they rank 13th in scoring with 114.6 points a game on 46.7% from the field.
They allow 115.3 points per game, sitting them at 20th in defensive scoring. The Atlanta injury report is loaded with players listed as day-to-day including: Trae Young, De’Andre Hunter, Clint Capela and Jarrett Culver.
Nets NBA’s Hottest Team
The Brooklyn Nets improved to 22-12 on the season after quietly winning their 9th straight game on Monday in Cleveland. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving tied for the teams leading scorer with 32 points, they each also had five assists while Durant added nine rebounds.
TJ Warren added 23 points and 8 rebounds off the bench. Brooklyn had a tremendous advantage from beyond the arc as they shot 18-30 for 60% compared to Cleveland going 13-36 for 36.1%.
The Nets sit at 13th in scoring with 114.4 points a game on a league high 51% from the field. They have moved up to 8th in defensive scoring with 111.3 points allowed per game. Brooklyn sports a clean injury report outside of Joe Harris who has been ruled out knee injury, a breath of fresh air nowadays.
Atlanta Hawks vs Brooklyn Nets Same Game Parlay
The Brooklyn Nets are favored by 6.5 points over the Atlanta Hawks with a total set at 234. This should be an entertaining game between two of the contenders in the Eastern Conference this season. Unfortunately we don’t currently have any Hawks props due to the uncertainty around their injury report.
The Nets are on an absolute heater right now and they can score from anywhere on the court as they own the leagues highest shooting and three-point percentage.
Brooklyn has also been elite defensively as they have surrendered the 9th least amount of points per game during this run. The Nets will easily come out on top in this one especially if Atlanta is short-handed, they should cover but we only need a victory for this same game parlay.
Kevin Durant has a three-point prop set at 1.5 -190, he has cleared this in 20 of 33 games on the season (61%) and 7 of his last 10 games including hitting two against the Hawks on December 9th. We get a sweet +105 price on the Nets money line combined with Durant hitting two three-pointers or more.
Same Game Parlay Prediction:
Brooklyn Nets ML -250
Durant Over 1.5 3’s -195
+105 Draftkings
