Here’s what you absolutely can’t miss this upcoming week in sports:

1. NBA – New York Knicks at Atlanta Hawks Moneyline (5/28/21 at 7pm)

The New York Knicks and Atlanta Hawks series is currently tied at 1-1. The Knicks are the underdog heading into Game 3 on Friday night despite winning 101-92 win on Wednesday. Atlanta’s Trae Young finished with 30 points and seven assists on Wednesday. De’Andre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdanovic each finished with 18 points. But New York’s Derrick Rose finished with a team-high of 26 points. Julius Randle and Reggie Bullock each finished with 15 points

I like the Knicks moneyline at +160 on Friday night. I also like the odds boost on Tipico Sportsbook for Randle to score over 30 points and Young to score under 20 points. The odds were boosted to +1700. I think the Knicks are hype after that Wednesday victory, and I expect that same energy on Friday. The only thing that might hold them back a bit is playing in Atlanta as opposed to home.

2. NBA – Brooklyn Nets at Boston Celtics Moneyline/Spread (5/28/21 at 8:30pm)

The Brooklyn Nets currently lead the series 2-0. They are still the favorite to win the NBA Finals at +170. Heading into Friday’s matchup, the Nets are the favorite to win at -370. I like them on the moneyline and at -7.5. There is no reason they shouldn’t be able to cover that 7.5-point spread. They have dominated the Boston Celtics. They won Tuesday’s game 130-108 and Saturday’s game 104-93, so I think 7.5 points should be pretty effortless for Brooklyn.

In addition to the spread and moneyline, I also like Kevin Durant to score at least 30 points and/or to finish with a double-double for the Nets. He scored 32 and 26 points in his last two games, respectively. In the first game, he finished with a double-double. In the second, he was just two rebounds away.
