Atlanta Hawks vs New York Knicks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 04/28/26

The Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks will wage a crucial contest as the NBA playoffs continue with Game 5 of this Eastern Conference first-round series at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night. The 2 teams have taken turns leading this series, which is now all tied up at 2-2 heading back to New York. Neither offense has been doing much of anything through four games, and I expect that trend to continue. My Hawks vs Knicks pick is Under 213.5. Atlanta is averaging just 104.0 ppg so far during these playoffs and has not exceeded 109 points in any game, while New York (110.3 ppg) has not been much better and has not exceeded 114 points on any occasion.

What’s especially concerning for the visitors is that Jalen Johnson’s production is down across the board. During the regular season, Johnson averaged 22.5 ppg on 48.9 percent shooting from the floor and 35.2 percent from 3-point range. Through four playoff games, the former Duke standout is averaging 19.5 ppg while shooting 41.9 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from downtown. Nickeil Alexander-Walker has also been held in check by the Knicks. He went 5-for-10 from deep in Saturday’s loss but contributed nothing else and finished with just 15 points. Alexander-Walker is averaging just 13.8 ppg after contributing 20.8 ppg during the regular season. For New York, Mikal Bridges has been a complete disaster. His playoff point totals are 11, 10, zero and 8.

Hawks vs Knicks prediction: Under 213.5 (-115) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
