Jalen Duren Points Scored Props • Detroit
With respect to three-point attempts, the 3rd-least aggressive offense in the NBA this year has been the Pistons.
Trae Young’s knee injury is giving the Hawks a preview of what this roster would look like longer term without its highest-profile player, and Jalen Johnson is one of the centerpieces for any future version of this Atlanta squad.
Johnson has put together All-Star numbers this year, and I’m wagering on his recent hot streak continuing against the Pistons tonight. He’s blown past this combo O/U line in five straight games, including a 30-12-12 line in Saturday’s victory over the Washington Wizards, and there’ll be no shortage of scoring and rebounding opportunities as long as Young and Kristaps Porzingis are sidelined.
