A couple of years ago, Steph Curry broke the all-time record for threes made at Madison Square Garden. Tonight, he returns to that history-making location alongside Jimmy Butler and his new-look Warriors. To add a little extra spice to this matchup at 7:30 pm ET on TNT, I’ve prepared a Warriors vs Knicks Same Game Parlay. Let’s break down each leg, while you can also get our NBA picks for each of today’s biggest games.

OG Anunoby 3+ made threes (+132)
Golden State has improved vastly on the defensive end since they made the trade for Jimmy Butler, but they still have issues guarding the perimeter. Their last 3 opponents have shot 40.6% from downtown against them, and when we see those teams were the Hornets, 76ers and Magic, it is a concern. New York ranks 6th in efficiency from deep this season, making 37.2% of shots, but what makes them even more dangerous is the fact that they have a variety of players who can cause damage from beyond the arc.
One of those threats from downtown is OG Anunoby, who has been lighting it up from distance over his past 10 games. The former Raptor is making 2.8 threes per game during this stretch on an impressive 44.4% efficiency. He’s made at least a pair of threes in 8 of those games, while in his last 2 against Memphis and Miami, he knocked down 4 in each game. It’s hard to ignore this type of consistency, so I’m riding the Anunoby train to kickstart our Warriors vs Knicks Same Game Parlay.

Jimmy Butler over 28.5 points+rebounds+assists (-112)
Playing under the bright lights at Madison Square Garden is another opportunity for the Warriors to send out a clear message to the rest of the NBA that they mean business. With Butler in the lineup, they’ve now won 8 of 9 games and Jimmy Buckets has contributed heavily on both ends of the court. His shot selection has been a tad more conservative over the past 4 games, but that should change at MSG on Tuesday in what could be a high-scoring game.
Steph Curry tweaked his ankle in last night’s win over Charlotte, so if he is not at 100% here then it’ll be up to Butler to carry the offense. In 9 games with the Warriors, Butler is posting 16 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, and I am confident he can exceed those numbers when facing a Knicks team against which he has averaged 21.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game in the last 5 meetings head-to-head.

Josh Hart to record 8+ rebounds (-330)
Only 4 times in his last 20 games has Josh Hart failed to collect 8 rebounds and he is averaging 10.7 per game during that stretch. That type of consistency on the glass is rarely seen these days, especially from a backcourt player. Hart is also on a streak of 3 consecutive games with at least 11 rebounds against Golden State, averaging 13.3 per game. Keeping opponents off the glass is something that the Warriors have struggled to master all season long, as they rank only 21st, allowing 53.1 rebounds per game.
Hart is a player who should log 40+ minutes on more nights than not, which is always good to consider when crafting our Warriors vs Knicks Same Game Parlay. He is likely to match up with Butler here, which should mean he will be a lot closer to the basket as Butler relies mostly on mid-range shots and penetration to get his points. I’m confident Hart can reach his season average here without any issues.
