Bam Adebayo, Over 23.5 Points/Assists 

NBA Odds: -110 at BetMGM

Adebayo averages 22.4 P/A on the season, and actually, he hasn’t exploded in production vs. the Hawks in four games (over 20 just once). But the Hawks rank dead-last in points allowed to power forwards, and dead-last in assists allowed to power forwards. Last postseason, he scored 20-plus in all five games, adding 3.8 apg.

Andrew Wiggins, Over 28.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists 

NBA Odds: -115 at DraftKings

Since joining the Heat, Wiggins’ PRA average stands at 27.5. This is just one point above that, but the Hawks are 30th out of 30 teams in PRA average against small forwards. Tyler Herro will attract attention after his scoring outburst vs. the Bulls, which will open up additional opportunities for Wiggins.

Desmond Bane, Over 6.5 Rebounds 

NBA Odds: -135 at FanDuel

The Grizzlies' shooting guard averages 6.1 boards per game on the season, but he gets a good matchup with the Mavericks. No team allows more boards to the SG spot on the floor than Dallas, and Bane himself has averaged 6.7 rpg since the start of February. He had 16 rebounds in the meeting between the teams in March.
