New York Knicks vs Washington Wizards Predictions
Knicks vs Wizards ATS Picks:
- Wizards +13.5 (4 units)
Backing Washington here is ugly, but this is a bad spot for the Knicks. New York has won six straight games and is coming off a big home win over the Lakers. After this game, the Knicks will play on a back-to-back, facing the Denver Nuggets at home on Wednesday. Seeing that the Knicks have beaten the Wizards 10 straight times, and have this game sandwiched between two marquee games, I think that New York could be die let down, or at least take their foot off the brakes late. I expect New York to win, but they are only 4-11 ATS as a road favorite this season. I like the Wizards, who are 4-1 ATS in their last five games to cover the big number.
Knicks vs Wizards Total Pick:
- Under 226.5 (4 units)
Over the last seven games, New York ranks No. 1 in defensive efficiency while sitting 23rd in pace, a combination that consistently suppresses scoring. Washington hasn’t helped matters on its end either, ranking just 27th in offensive efficiency over that same stretch.
This sets up as a classic Knicks game script where they control tempo, defend at a high level, and limit easy looks. With a bigger matchup looming tomorrow, New York has every incentive to win efficiently rather than push pace. All signs point to a slower, defense-driven contest that stays under the number.
