Before making any Hawks vs. Nets picks, you NEED to check out the NBA predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

The model knows Atlanta guard Trae Young is the leading playmaker in the backcourt. Young has good ball handles and shooting range to be a solid offensive threat. The Oklahoma product ranks third in the league in assists (10) and 11th in points (26.5). On March 22 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, he dropped 29 points and 8 boards. 

The model also knows Brooklyn forward Mikal Bridges is a two-way force. Bridges can get a bucket from anywhere on the floor and use his length as an asset defensively. The Villanova product averages 19.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game. In the March 26 contest against the Orlando Magic, he dropped 44 points and 6 boards.

Now, it has set its sights on Hawks vs. Nets. We can tell you the model is leaning Over on the point total, and it also says one side of the spread hits in almost 60% of simulations! You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any NBA picks.
