New York Knicks
The New York Knicks have been in red-hot form as they've won five of their last six games overall and they will be eager to stay hot after blowing past the Nuggets in a 145-118 road win on Monday. OG Anunoby led the team with 40 points on 16 of 23 shooting, Karl-Anthony Towns added 30 points with 15 rebounds and four assists on 12 of 15 shooting while Jalen Brunson chipped in with 23 points and 17 assists. As a team, the Knicks shot a sizzling 60 percent from the field and 19 of 36 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 76 points in the first half, allowing them to cruise in the second half where they led by as many as 30 points at one stage.
Dallas Mavericks
Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have been in great shape as they've won five of their last six games overall and they will be looking to stay hot after routing the Hawks in a 129-119 road win on Monday. Kyrie Irving led the team with 32 points, seven rebounds, and six assists, Jaden Hardy added 23 points while Naji Marshall and Spencer Dinwiddie each scored 22 points. As a team, the Mavericks shot 50 percent from the field and 16 of 35 from the 3-point line as they struggled to contain the Hawks early on and trailed for most of the contest before they dominated the second half by 68-52 to win comfortably on the road.
Why the New York Knicks will win
- The Mavericks have lost each of their last six games as underdogs against Atlantic Division opponents following a win.
- The Knicks have won six of their last seven night games.
- The Mavericks have failed to cover the spread in 14 of their last 15 home games against Eastern Conference opponents following a win.
- The Knicks have covered the spread in eight of their last nine games against Southwest Division opponents after winning as underdogs.
Total Points Facts

- Each of the Knicks' last seven Wednesday games has gone OVER the total points line.
New York Knicks vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
The Knicks are still missing a couple of players including Mitchell Robinson and Precious Achiuwa, while the Mavericks are still missing Klay Thompson, Luka Doncic, and Dante Exum. Both teams are coming into this meeting with plenty of momentum, but it is the Knicks who open as favorites with the Mavericks still missing Doncic from the starting lineup. It wouldn't be a shock if the Mavericks got the upset win at home, but I think the value is with the Knicks to get the win and cover on the road at this short line.
