New York Knicks vs Miami Heat Prediction
The Knicks are expecting to have Josh Hart and Mitchell Robinson back from injury, while the Heat are missing Andrew Wiggins and Jaime Jacquez Jr.. The Knicks have been one of the form teams of the league and they are clear favorites against the Heat who were really struggling before they won their last two games. This is a close one to pick, but with the line so short, I have to lean towards the more consistent Knicks. Who should be as healthy as they’ve been all season with Robinson and Hart now back in the lineup. Give me the Knicks to get the job done on the road.
Peter Tran's Pick: New York -5.5
