The Toronto Raptors are hosting the New York Knicks in the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup on Tuesday night. Toronto was undefeated in its group and will look to keep its perfect Cup run going. Considering that the Knicks won their previous meeting between these sides this season by a 22-point margin, it is not going to be an easy task.

Scottie Barnes Over 5.5 assists (+110)
Raptors star Scottie Barnes has been sharing the ball to start December. He has recorded 6 or more assists in 3 of the 4 games he has appeared in so far, coming just one short in the other. That one game was also a blowout loss that saw him play 5 fewer minutes than any other game this month. With RJ Barrett remaining out, Barnes has taken on more of the playmaking responsibilities. Considering he is averaging 5.3 assists per game this season, it makes him great value to hit the over on this line. With Mitchell Robinson in the paint contesting shots as a help defender, it should encourage the Raptors’ playmaker to kick to ball out and find open shooters.

Jordan Clarkson Under 1.5 made threes (-132)
Jordan Clarkson has not had an easy start to life with the New York Knicks, and his inefficiencies from deep are the reason why. He is currently making 29.2% of his 3-point attempts, on pace for the worst mark of his career. His 1.2 makes per game would also be his worst mark since his rookie season. Over the last 8 games he has hit the over on this line on just 2 occasions. On the season the Raptors are third in opponent 3-point percentage and seventh in opponent 3-point makes per game — not an easy opponent for Clarkson to have a bounce-back game against.

Jalen Brunson Over 2.5 rebounds (-154)
Jalen Brunson has had little influence rebounding the ball in December, recording 2 boards in each of his 4 games so far this month. However, in his one game against Raptors this season, he pulled down 6. Do not be surprised to see him going one rebound better than he has in recent games as a result. As mentioned, the Raptors are a great team this season at defending the 3-point line — which should lead to more misses from deep and long rebounding opportunities for guards. In that 6-rebound performance, 2 came on the offensive end. I expect him to use this avenue to pad his rebounding numbers in this one, too.
