The Hornets play their second game in as many days and face off against the Chicago Bulls. One player that has thrived on back to backs is the Rookie, Kon Kneuppel. Kon is averaging 19.8 ppg on B2Bs clearing this line in 5/6 games with a median output of 20. The Bulls have been a strong matchup for him too. He scored 12 in his first game against them but 33 in his most recent game. The Bulls have a miserable defense, play at the second-fastest Pace in the league. The Bulls allow a top 10 rate on above the break 3s and Kon is a sniper from there while also being able to attack the rim. Kon is scorching hot of late hitting this prop in 8 of his last 10 games and he’s been relatively unaffected by playing with Ball, Miller, and Bridges.
