Jalen Johnson Points Prop is currently Over/Under 23.5 (-110/-118).
Key Factors
Favors Over
In regard to offense, the Hawks's exceptional 117.1 points per game ranks 10th-highest in the NBA this year.
The 2nd-quickest tempo home team in the NBA over the last 25 games has been the Atlanta Hawks.
The Hawks will likely see a spike in plays today from squaring off against the 9th-speediest tempo team in the NBA this year (the Trail Blazers).
Favors Under
This year, the opposing team's starting PFs have shot 29.6% on three-pointers (4th-weakest in the league) vs. the Portland Trail Blazers, resulting in a difficult matchup.
Offensive rebounds retain possession and result in more opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Hawks grade out 9thworst in in the NBA with a mere 10.4 offensive rebounds per game this year.
The matchup against Portland may be a challenging one for getting to the foul line; the other team's starting PFs have attempted a measly 2.5 foul shots per game over the last 10 games when the Portland Trail Blazers are away from home (2nd-least in the NBA).
