Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Atlanta Hawks prepare to face the Cleveland Cavaliers, Jalen Johnson's prop bet for Under 21.5 combined rebounds and assists stands out. While he's showcased solid numbers recently, averaging 10.6 boards and 6.6 assists over his last five games, his away performance tells a different story. On the road, he's averaging just 8.8 rebounds and 6.8 assists, which are both beneath the threshold we're targeting. Against the Cavaliers, who tend to stifle opposing offenses, Johnson's contributions have dipped further, with averages of 7.7 rebounds and a mere 4.3 assists in their past meetings. The statistics indicate that he's hit the Under in 8 of his last 9 outings, and 7 of 8 when away. With the Cavaliers' defense presenting a tough challenge, expecting Johnson to fall below that 21.5 mark feels like a smart play in this matchup.
