The Hawks face off against the Cavaliers in a game that candidly means more for Atlanta than it does for Cleveland. While the Cavs CAN move up to 3, they basically need to win out due to tiebreakers with the Knicks. Jalen Johnson has been awesome for Atlanta. He is averaging 33.6 PR without both Trae and Porzingis, with 23.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. He’s exceeded this PR line in 27/47 games. The key here is this is likely the 4/5 matchup in the Eastern Conference. Given that, I would be shocked if the Cavs deploy any type of nuanced coverage against Johnson. In two games against the Cavs this season he averages 26 points and 12.5 rebounds for 38.5 PR. I expect max minutes from Jalen tonight considering they are actively looking to avoid the Play-In Tournament.
