Knicks vs Raptors Prediction 11/15/2026 NBA Picks Today

Knicks vs Raptors Prediction

It would be nice to know if Barnes is playing for the Raptors before betting on this. The Raptors aren’t attractive if they’re down their best two players. The Knicks have also owned the Raptors over the years, which includes 10 straight wins and a 9-1 ATS record. However, we’ve been fading the Knicks a lot this season, and they’re 4-8 ATS. Because the Knicks won the title, they’re getting a lot of inflated lines and just aren’t getting it done. We just saw the Knicks lose to the banged-up Pacers as 7.5-point favorites. The offense just isn’t clicking.

There’s a clear championship hangover going on here. I’m sure things will turn around sooner than later, but until it does, I’m going to keep fading the Knicks. Give me the Raptors and the points.
