Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young looks to keep his team on a roll when they host the injury-riddled New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night. Young, averaging 21.4 points and a league-leading 12.1 assists this season, has been the engine behind Atlanta’s three-game win streak.
Here’s a look at some of the top prop bets for Trae Young on DraftKings Sportsbook ahead of Monday’s matchup:
Best Trae Young Prop Bets
21.5 Points (Over -115 / Under -115): Young has averaged 21.4 points per game this season, slightly below this line. With the Pelicans dealing with significant injuries, Young could find opportunities to exceed his season average, making the Over an intriguing option. However, the Under might appeal to bettors expecting more distribution-focused play from Young.
11.5 Assists (Over -115 / Under -115): As the league leader in assists, Young has averaged 12.1 this season and 13.4 over his last five games. The Over holds value in a matchup where Young could exploit New Orleans’ depleted lineup.
2.5 Threes (Over -120 / Under -110): Young has hit 2.7 three-pointers per game this season, though his last five games have slightly dipped at 2.0 per contest. The Under could be a solid option if you expect the trend to continue, given the odds bring a better payout if it transpires.
Points + Assists 33.5 (Over -105 / Under -125): Young’s combined output in scoring and play making has been a hallmark of his game this season. The Over is enticing for bettors expecting him to continue orchestrating Atlanta’s offense efficiently but managing to score at a high volume. The Under offers a safer choice if you anticipate a lower-scoring game overall.
