Magic vs Knicks Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread Pick
NY Knicks -2.5(-105)

The New York Knicks go into today’s game against the Orlando Magic with a lot of confidence. They currently have the second-best record at home, having won 12 of 13 games there so far this season. Only the Oklahoma City Thunder has fewer losses. Those games tend to be comfortable for them too, with a points differential of +14.6, again the second-best mark in the league. The Magic have had mixed results on the road, winning 5 of their 10 games. They will be hoping that Karl-Anthony Towns does not take to the floor, with the Knicks star listed as questionable. His status could swing the outcome of this game.

The Magic have still had issues this season shooting the ball from deep, ranking just 23rd in 3-point percentage. Against a team that is 5th in that category, that difference in efficiency could be hard to overcome. The Magic have relied on points in the paint instead, ranking 4th in that category, but these will not be easy to come by today. With the help of Mitchell Robinson, the hosts will have plenty of rim protection. This season they have given up the 4th fewest paint points to opponents and are well positioned to take away the visitors’ strengths. Look for their great home form to continue here.

Magic vs Knicks prediction: Knicks -2.5 (-105) available at time of publishing. Playable to Knicks -3.

Like most Lithuanians, I started watching basketball from the age of six. I'm based out in London and played basketball at the University of Lincoln here in the UK. I had always had an interest in the NBA but things really took off in the summer of 2010. That year Linas Kleiza led Lithuania to 3rd place at the World Championships and signed with the Toronto Raptors to replace the departing Chris Bosh. I've been a Raptors fan since that day and I've not missed a game since. I've been handicapping games for more than a decade, specializing in player props.
