NBA Knicks vs. Hawks Picks

New York enters Game 2 with a 1-0 series lead after beating Atlanta 113-102 on Saturday. Jalen Brunson scored 28 points, including 19 in the first quarter alone. Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 25 points and went 10-of-10 from the free-throw line. Atlanta's frontcourt is now in serious trouble. Jock Landale is out with an ankle injury, and Onyeka Okongwu is questionable with right knee inflammation. If Okongwu cannot play, Atlanta is left with Mo Gueye and Tony Bradley at center.

Pick 1: Jalen Brunson Over 25.5 Points (-115)

Brunson averaged 26.0 points, 6.8 assists, and 3.3 rebounds during the regular season. He already exceeded this prop in Game 1 with 28 points. Atlanta has no answer for him at the point of attack. With Okongwu's status uncertain, the Hawks lose their best interior defender. That makes driving lanes more available for Brunson throughout the game. In the three regular-season meetings between these two teams this year, Brunson and Towns combined for 70 points in one of those contests. The 25.5 line is a reasonable number given his current form and Atlanta's depleted frontcourt.

Pick 2: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 10.5 Rebounds (-110)

Towns averages 11.9 rebounds per game this season. He already pulled down 8 boards in Game 1 despite Atlanta's physical effort inside. Without Landale and potentially without Okongwu, Atlanta has no reliable rebounder to match Towns in the paint. The Hawks would be forced to go with a smaller lineup, leaving Mo Gueye and Tony Bradley as their only interior options. Towns should dominate the glass in those conditions. The 10.5 line is set below his season average, and a depleted Atlanta front makes the over a strong target.

Pick 3: New York Knicks -5.5 (-115)

The Knicks covered the spread 27 times in 40 home games this season, and numberFire gives New York a 73.8% chance of winning tonight. New York won Game 1 by 11 points as a 5.5-point favorite. The Hawks posted a 23-30 record against opponents at or above .500 this season, and much of their late-season run came against a softer schedule. Repeating a competitive performance on the road against a healthy Knicks roster, at MSG, with a depleted frontcourt, is a hard ask. Against the spread, the Hawks finished the regular season 44-38, but New York's home ATS record gives the Knicks the edge here.

Knicks vs. Hawks Same Game Parlay

Jalen Brunson Over Points + Karl-Anthony Towns Over Rebounds + Knicks -5.5

New York controls the interior from the opening tip. Towns dominates a thin Atlanta frontcourt on both ends, pulling down rebounds and forcing the Hawks to help on every post touch. Brunson attacks downhill off pick-and-roll actions, finding lanes that Atlanta cannot close with their backup bigs on the floor. Atlanta's best path to covering is a big game from CJ McCollum and Jalen Johnson, who combined for 49 points in Game 1. OG Anunoby played elite defense in Game 1 and added 19 points. Expect Anunoby to target Johnson again tonight as the primary assignment.

Final Prediction

New York wins Game 2 behind another strong performance from Brunson and Towns. Atlanta's frontcourt situation limits their ability to rebound and defend the paint at the same volume they need on the road. The Knicks take a 2-0 series lead heading to Atlanta.

Predicted Score: New York Knicks 112, Atlanta Hawks 99
