New York Knicks vs Phoenix Suns Betting Prediction
The Knicks are struggling with their shooting, particularly from three-point range, where they are only connecting on less than 30% of their attempts. In recent games, their offensive rebounding has declined, and they are irresponsible with the ball on the road.
Choose Phoenix to cover the spread because the Suns play lockdown defense and force lots of turnovers at home, where they limit opponents to 106 points per game.
Pick: Suns -6 (-110)
