Knicks at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 118, Knicks 112

Moneyline

The Suns beat the Knicks in New York 116-113 on Nov. 26.

The Knicks are 6-7 on the road this season and have lost their last 3 road games. The Suns are 5-7 at home and have alternated wins and losses in their last six home games. That trend would mean a win tonight.

But -200 odds aren't worth the action, having to wager more than twice what you can win.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Knicks are 11-10-2 ATS on the season but are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games. The Suns are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games and 10-13-1 ATS overall this season. They have covered the spread in 5 of their last 6 wins.

Hitting the 110-point mark has been key. The Suns have scored 110 or more 11 of their 13 wins. They are 11-5 when scoring 110 or more.

BET SUNS -4.5 (-115).

Over/Under

The Over is 6-0 in the Knicks' last 6 games and 8-2 in their last 10.

Their last meeting had a total of 229 points. In their last 5 meetings, the total has not reached 231 points. Only 2 of the Suns' last 10 games have surpassed 230 total points.

BET UNDER 231.5 (-110).
