The Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic meet Tuesday night in Orlando in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament. The winner will secure the No. 7 seed and a first-round matchup against the Boston Celtics.
It’s a high-stakes showdown between two teams that split four regular-season meetings, and Atlanta will again lean on its All-Star point guard to lead the way.
Here is the featured Trae Young prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Tuesday’s matchup against the Magic:
Best Trae Young Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Over 37.5 Points + Assists (-115)
Young has been consistently productive since the All-Star break, averaging 25.3 points and 11.7 assists over his last 25 games. He’s cleared this combo line often and heads into Tuesday having posted a 28-point, 10-assist double-double in the most recent matchup with Orlando on April 9.
Across three games against the Magic this season, Young has averaged 28.3 points and 8.0 assists. His shot creation and playmaking will be critical against an Orlando defense that limited Atlanta to 112 points in that same April 9 loss, but showed signs of vulnerability down the stretch. This previous production put Young close to the line.
Remember, the Hawks do not have another star player to rely on and will face a tough defensive squad. Young will surely have to leave it all on the floor in a do-or-die situation, leading to plenty of chances to put up a high volume of points and dish out assists.
As the league’s leader in Play-In appearances (this marks Atlanta’s fourth), Young’s experience and usage in these win-or-go-home environments make him a solid candidate to produce heavily. With Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner powering Orlando’s offense, expect the Hawks to counter by putting the ball in Young’s hands early and often.
In a must-win scenario, look for Young’s scoring and assist totals to climb in a game that should demand peak minutes and output.
