Our guy tonight will be Bogdan Bogdanovic of the Atlanta Hawks. Bogdan has had an up and down season but when John Collins is out of the lineup he’s nearly an auto play for me. Collins did not participate in morning shoot around and is doubtful at the time I’m writing this so I’m gonna lock this in.
Over the last 2 seasons when Collins sits, Bogdan has averaged 21.6 points per game. He’s over 15 points in 10/13, over 20 points in 10/13, and over 25 in 5/13. Now don’t panic when the game begins and he’s not out there. He will likely be the Hawks sixth man tonight.
We also get the benefit of a terrific matchup for Bog. The Bulls allow the 3rd most points to his position, so feels like a great spot for him to continue his tear without Collins. As usual I risk 1 unit total on this with roughly .5 units on 14.5, .3 units on 20, and .2 units on 25.
