5 minAtlanta Hawks vs. Brooklyn Nets Betting Pick: Can Dejounte Murray Continue to Shine?
Dejounte Murray has been running the show in Atlanta since Trae Young has gone down to injury. I believe Atlanta's only hope of winning comes from them putting the ball into his hands and letting him facilitate like he did in San Antonio.

ATLANTA HAWKS VS. BROOKLYN NETS PREDICTION
Dejounte Murray has been heating up since the Injury of his running partner Trae Young. Since Young has been injured, Murray has been the main man in Atlanta, similar to how he was on the San Antonio Spurs.
The assists numbers that Trae Young once grabbed are now up for grabs and Murray has taken over the role by recording 11 assists per game since his absence. Murray is also one of the better rebounding guards in the NBA pulling in around 5.3 rebounds per game. He is averaging 6.6 rebounds this month and had nine against a solid Magic team on Sunday.
He has hit this line in four out of his last five games and both in Trae's absence. Murray should also be playing the full game as this one should definitely be close with it being a one point spread. Brooklyn will be without Cam Thomas tonight as he is ruled out with an ankle injury which will help Atlanta keep this one close. I believe this is a great line for Murray and there is too much value not to take it.
