New York Knicks vs Indiana Pacers Player Prop Picks 2/11/25 NBA Picks

The New York Knicks (34-18) are set to face the Indiana Pacers (29-22) on February 11, 2025, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Knicks, currently third in the Eastern Conference, are coming off a 131-104 loss to the Boston Celtics, despite a 36-point effort from Jalen Brunson. Prior to this defeat, they had secured seven wins in their last nine games. The duo of Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns has been instrumental in their offensive success.

The Pacers, holding the fourth spot in the East, recently suffered a 124-117 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, with Pascal Siakam leading the team with 23 points. Despite losing two of their last three games, they had a four-game winning streak prior, showcasing strong defense and significant contributions from their backcourt and Siakam.

This season, the Knicks and Pacers have split their series, each winning one game. The upcoming matchup is crucial for both teams as they aim to solidify their positions in the Eastern Conference standings.

Jalen Brunson Over 27.5 Points

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson is averaging 26.3 points per game, ranking him ninth in the NBA. He also contributes 7.5 assists per game, placing him ninth in that category as well. Brunson’s shooting efficiency includes a field goal percentage of 49.0%. In recognition of his sharpshooting abilities, Brunson has been selected to participate in the 2025 NBA All-Star Weekend’s 3-Point Contest.

Jalen Brunson has been playing at another level in his last few games. In his last game against the Boston Celtics, he scored 36 points, and two games before that, he put up 42 points against the Houston Rockets. He has another favorable matchup going against the Pacers who are known to play at a fast pace and contribute to high-scoring games. I don’t see Jalen Brunson slowing down in this one. 

Pascal Siakam Over 1.5 Three Pointers

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam has played 51 games in the 2024-25 NBA season, averaging 20.7 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game. His shooting efficiency includes a field goal percentage of 53.1% and a three-point percentage of 41.1%, making 1.7 three-pointers per game on 4.2 attempts. His improved three-point shooting has significantly contributed to his offensive performance this season.

Siakam has been inconsistent from beyond The arc but when he plays in a favorable matchup we’ve seen him have success. The Knicks give up 13.6 3-pointers per game to opposing teams which is above the league average. We saw Siakam hit five three-pointers just a couple of games ago against the Clippers. I also like how we can get plus odds at this 1.5 line. In what should be a close & competitive game there’s good value taking Siakam to hit multiple three-pointers.

Karl Anthony Towns Under 12.5 Rebounds

Towns’ rebounding performance has been a significant factor in his selection as a starter for the Eastern Conference in the upcoming NBA All-Star game. He’s averaging 13.5 rebounds per game, which ranks him second in the league. 

However, in a recent game against the Boston Celtics on February 9, Towns was limited to nine rebounds, as the Knicks were out-rebounded 48-30. He’s also failed to get over 12 rebounds in five of his last six games. He’s going against this Pacers team that has two really solid rebounders in Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner. Karl Anthony Towns is one of the best rebounders in the league but this isn’t the spot to take his over.
