Jazz at Knicks picks and predictions
Prediction
Knicks 129, Jazz 121
Moneyline
The Jazz have been better on the road recently but are only 9-18 on the season. They have lost 3 of the 5 games on their current road trip and face a Knicks squad that has won 7 in a row and 13 of 15. And the Knicks are 16-5 at home.
I don't see a Utah upset but -185 odds isn't a great value on the Knicks when you can just bet the spread.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Knicks are 13-7-1 ATS at home this season while the Jazz are 13-14 ATS on the road.
The Knicks will have to adjust to the absence of Randle, but were fine Monday night in their win over the Hornets.
Three of the Jazz' last 4 losses have been by at least 5 points while 12 of the Knicks' last 13 wins have been by 5 or more points.
BET KNICKS -4.5 (-105).
Over/Under
The total when the 2 teams met in December was 230 points.
Nine of the last 10 games for the Jazz have surpassed the projected total for this matchup. Only 1 of the Knicks' last 9 games has reached more than 231 points. They have scored over 120 points in 3 of their last 5 games.
The Jazz have allowed 122 or more in 5 of their last 6.
BET OVER 231.5 (-105).
