Back the Knicks at home, fade them on the road. It’s been a pretty reliable rule of thumb.New York are just 3–10 against the spread away from home this season, and they’re missing some key pieces in the rebounding department. Mitchell Robinson and Miles McBride.
That opens the door for a New Orleans side that’s been trending the right way.
Sure, the Pels got smoked in back-to-back games by the Cavs and the Suns, but there’s still some fight there. And at home, they’ve been rock solid.
Giannis is back, logged 25 minutes in his return and still piled on 29 points with eight boards, but just the one assist.
That’s because Kevin Porter Jr. has clearly taken over as the main distributor in Milwaukee, and it’s cutting into Giannis’ playmaking chances.
I don’t see him pushing much past 30 minutes again, yet his assists line is still sitting at 6.5.
I’m buying the under here.
