Clippers vs Hawks prediction

Clippers vs Hawks best bet: Nickeil Alexander-Walker Over 21.5 points (-110)

With Trae Young sidelined due to injury, others have had to step up to keep the Atlanta Hawks afloat.

One of those players has been Nickeil Alexander-Walker, who’s run with the opportunity to have an increased role, averaging a career-high 20.4 points. 

The Canadian guard has cashed the Over in three straight, dropping 30+ twice. Last time out, Alexander-Walker showed out for 26 points in a tough 99-98 loss to the Detroit Pistons. 

He’s averaging 20.6 points per game at home, and he’s also hit the Over in points in three in a row at State Farm Arena. The Los Angeles Clippers have lost five straight, and they just allowed another guard – Norman Powell – to drop 30 on them.
