Atlanta Hawks vs Brooklyn Nets Preview
Jonathan Kuminga is averaging 11.7 points per game for the Hawks this season, and his recent results have been somewhat inconsistent — although, we are finally starting to see a trend form.
Kuminga has scored under 12.5 points in four straight games entering tonight's contest — posting totals of 10, 12, 3, and 8 points in those four outings.
Tonight, Kuminga and the Hawks draw a matchup against a tanking Nets squad that is positioned 14th in the Eastern Conference standings at 18-58.
Atlanta is a 16.5-point favorite over Brooklyn in this game. So, there's also the possibility of Kuminga losing out on some minutes if it turns into a blowout early.
Hawks vs Nets Picks, Betting Predictions
The overall trends aren't the strongest on paper — but the projection still clearly points to the under here.
Even against a Nets team that's pretty bad defensively, they still bring enough effort on that end to slow down Kuminga.
Action PRO is projecting Kuminga for 10.16 points tonight. So, we see value in backing him to stay under 12.5 in this spot.
