Jazz vs. Hawks
Jalen Johnson: Points Over 22.5
ANALYSIS
We are backing Johnson to exploit a Utah defense that currently ranks dead last in the NBA (125.2 DRtg) and is missing its primary rim protector, Walker Kessler. Johnson has thrived as Atlanta's high-usage engine, averaging 23.8 points over his last five games and coming off a 29-point triple-double on Tuesday in a matchup with a massive 244.5 projected total.
OUTCOME
Utah Jazz 119 - Atlanta Hawks 121
