Key Stats

Brooklyn Nets 

Brooklyn Nets

Brooklyn is led in scoring by Cam Thomas. Thomas has 21.5 points per game. However, Mikal Bridges is seen as the clear leader of this team. Bridges averages 20.5 points per game. They will need both players to have a big game if they hope to escape with a win in Madison Square Garden today. But in order to do so, Nic Claxton will need to step up and be big-time for the Brooklyn Nets. Claxton averages 12.2 points per game but also 9.8 rebounds per game.

New York Knicks

New York Knicks

The Knicks are hoping to avoid an embarrassing loss to the Brooklyn Nets. It could happen, and Jalen Brunson will make sure that it doesn’t. Brunson leads this New York Knicks team in scoring with 27.5 points per game. Additionally, he leads the team in assists with 6.5 per game. But Josh Hart is the player to look for today. He won’t have a triple-double, but his overall stat line may make him close to having one. He averages 9.0 points per game, 8.0 rebounds per game, and 3.7 assists per game. But again, he is someone who tends to have an all-around good game. Furthermore, Donte DiVincenzo is averaging 14.3 points per game and needs to step up his consistent storm production.

Injury Report

Brooklyn Nets 

  • Dennis Schroder- GTD
  • Keon Johnson – GTD
  • Dariq Whitehead – Out
  • Ben Simmons – Out

New York Knicks

  • Mitchell Robinson- Out
  • OG Anunoby – Out
  • Julius Randle- Out

Game Prediction

I see this game as a dominant win for the New York Knicks from start to finish. The Knicks are more complete, and overall, they have been better throughout the season. Furthermore, the current active players have had a nice stretch of games together and should be able to handle business against the Brooklyn Nets. The point total has too much unknown for me to take action on. But I don’t see the spread being an issue. Therefore, I’m picking the New York Knicks to cover the spread.

Final Pick

New York Knicks -7.5
