The Atlanta Hawks' offense, led by Jalen Johnson's 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 7.9 assists per game, will test the New York Knicks' home defense at Madison Square Garden. The Hawks are scoring 118.5 points per game on 47% shooting, while the Knicks are scoring 116.5 points per game on 48% shooting. New York's defense will need to contain Atlanta's potent offense, especially with center Jalen Landale out due to an ankle injury.
The Knicks, led by Jalen Brunson's 26.0 points and 6.8 assists per game, and Kristaps Porzingis' 11.9 rebounds per game, are 30-10 at home and favored by 5.5 points. The game is projected to exceed the 217.5-point total. Will the Knicks' strong home form be enough to contain the Hawks' scoring machine, or will Atlanta pull off the upset?
