Atlanta’s three-point options come with a clear tradeoff: ask Onyeka Okongwu for two makes, or Nickeil Alexander-Walker for four and a bigger payout. Atlanta’s latest win over Washington featured both: Okongwu made two and Alexander-Walker hit six in a 120–105 victory. If you’re backing Atlanta, those are two ways to build your Hawks parlay picks.
The starting point here is an Atlanta win. We compare the Hawks’ shooting in their wins with Kyshawn George’s rebounding in Wizards losses, then compare each player’s record across all of his games this season. Those are small samples—five Atlanta wins and four Washington losses—and you can choose an option without taking all three.

Onyeka Okongwu: Over 1.5 made threes
Okongwu’s two-threes target has tracked Atlanta’s results closely this season. He’s reached it in four Hawks wins and none of their four losses. His last three winning outings brought four threes against Cleveland, two at Indiana and two at Washington, so this isn’t resting on one big shooting night.
The miss came in the opener at Orlando, when he went without a made three in 29 minutes and Atlanta still won. That’s a useful reminder if you like the Hawks but don’t expect much perimeter scoring from their center. The longer view is less convincing, too: across this season and last, he reached two threes in 30 of 46 Atlanta regular-season wins and 47 of 83 appearances overall. The current run is stronger than that history, rather than an established season-after-season pattern.
At −107, Okongwu asks for fewer makes than Alexander-Walker but also returns less profit for the same stake. He’s expected to start at center, while Jock Landale is out with a hip injury and Jalen Johnson is questionable with an ankle issue. That leaves uncertainty around Atlanta’s frontcourt; the shooting record doesn’t tell us how a different rotation would play.
Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Over 3.5 made threes
Alexander-Walker is the choice if your Atlanta view includes a productive night from its starting shooting guard. He made nine threes at Indiana before hitting six in the latest meeting with Washington. Four makes would be enough for this offer, and he’s reached that mark in each of the Hawks’ last three wins.
There’s a clear recent exception: he made two in Atlanta’s 128–81 win at Charlotte, playing 27 minutes. The Hawks didn’t need four from him to win comfortably. He also went without a three in the recent loss at New Orleans, so the last two games shouldn’t erase the quieter nights.
The +125 price pays more than either of the other options here, with the extra work of needing four makes. Across this season and last, he made at least four in just 17 of 48 Hawks regular-season wins and 35 of 87 appearances overall. His current-season record is much better, but five wins are still a short stretch. Okongwu and Alexander-Walker offer two ways to back Atlanta’s shooting; taking both adds two shooting performances that need to come through, rather than making either one more certain.
Kyshawn George: Under 4.5 rebounds
George offers a different route if you’d rather look at Washington’s side of an Atlanta win. He’s finished with three, four, two and four rebounds in the Wizards’ four losses this season. The latest four came in 35 minutes against these Hawks, even as he scored 25 points and handed out seven assists. He can have an active night without collecting five boards.
There’s little room in several of those results: one extra rebound would have put him above today’s line in two of the four losses. He also grabbed nine in Washington’s win at Chicago. And the older record is far less supportive—22 of 42 Wizards regular-season losses, and 28 of 56 appearances overall, across this season and last. The small current sample deserves more caution than its perfect loss record might suggest.
The −139 price is the heaviest of these three choices. Anthony Davis is questionable with a right ankle sprain, which matters to how Washington’s frontcourt and rebounding work may be shared. George is expected to start and has no current injury flag, but don’t read the earlier games as a settled picture of a Davis absence.

Choosing your Hawks parlay picks
If you expect Atlanta’s outside shooting to feature, Okongwu gives you the lower target, while Alexander-Walker offers plus money for four makes. George’s rebound under is a way to look beyond the Hawks’ shooters, though it costs more and has a thin recent case. These are individual offers, not a quoted same-game parlay, and you don’t need every option to build around an Atlanta win.
