Wizards vs. Knicks Pick
Wizards vs. Knicks Spread Pick
- Knicks (4 units)
Both teams are playing their third game in four nights here. The Wizards get the rest advantage with having Sunday off, but the Knicks were at home Sunday, so there was no travel involved. Washington has been dismal on the defensive end of the floor, and they arenโt setting the world on fire on the offensive end of things. New York is playing the second game of a back-to-back spot here, but they do have their dangerous trio of Brunson, Towns, and Bridges leading the way on the offensive end of the floor. Washington has lost four games by double figures already this season, and the Knicks hand them another as New York rolls to a victory here at home.
Wizards vs. Knicks Over/Under Pick
