Best Magic vs. Hawks Player Props: NBA Prop Bet Picks for Nov. 4

My best Magic vs. Hawks player props for tonight’s 8 p.m. ET (NBC/Peacock) game at State Farm Arena in Atlanta focus on Jalen Johnson, Wendell Carter Jr., and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. The Magic are a 3.5-point road favorite.

These two teams have already met once this season, though Trae Young was active in that game, and he won’t be tonight. How will his absence impact the NBA best bets for this contest?

💰 Best Magic vs. Hawks player props

⬆️ Jalen Johnson player prop: Over 20.5 points (-101) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

When these two teams met earlier this season, Johnson scored only 12 points. However, Trae Young played in that game, scoring 25 points, and in Young's absence, there’s little doubt Johnson is the go-to scorer for the Hawks.

Johnson has scored at least 22 points in four consecutive games, and his 12-point performance against the Magic is still his only game with fewer than 22 points this season.

Considering how consistent Johnson has been, DraftKings’ price of -101 is a gift, especially when other best sports betting sites have the price as high as -130. The -101 odds imply a 50.25% chance that Johnson hits this Over. A $10 bet would profit $9.90.

⬆️ Wendell Carter Jr. player prop: Over 8.5 rebounds (+110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Carter has recorded at least eight rebounds in six of his seven games this season. The only time he didn’t, he played just 15 minutes. He’s recorded at least 10 boards in three different games, and he’s coming off a 12-rebound game against the Wizards on Saturday.

Though Carter failed to hit this Over against the Hawks earlier this season, managing just eight rebounds in 31 minutes, the Hawks are allowing the third-most rebounds per game.

DraftKings and FanDuel are asking astronomical prices for Carter to record more than 7.5 rebounds. In a great matchup, I’ll take him to get an extra rebound for +110 at Caesars. The price implies a 47.62% chance this Over hits. A $10 bet would profit $11.

⬆️ Nickeil Alexander-Walker player prop: Over 19.5 points + assists (-118) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Alexander-Walker has recorded at least 20 points and assists in five of his last six games. He’s averaging 3.4 assists per game, and he’s recorded at least three in all but one game this season. 

Alexander-Walker is an active 3-point shooter, but he was terrible against the Magic earlier this season, making just one of his 10 attempts in that game. However, he was still able to score 19 in that contest, as he combined for 23 points and assists. And with the Magic allowing opponents to make 36.2% of their threes (20th in the league), I anticipate a better shooting night for Alexander-Walker tonight.

BetMGM’s price implies a 54.13% chance that Alexander-Walker hits this Over. A $10 bet would profit $8.47.
