New York Knicks vs. Washington Wizards Starting 5s

Knicks - PG: Jalen Brunson, SG: Quentin Grimes, SF: RJ Barrett, PF: Julius Randle, C: Mitchell Robinson

Wizards - PG: Monte Morris, SG: Corey Kispert, SF: Kyle Kuzma, PF: Kristaps Porzingis, C: Daniel Gafford

Knicks vs. Wizards Prediction

When it comes to offense, Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson have been leading the charge for the Knicks this season. Randle's currently at the top with an average of 24.1 points per game. Defensively, the team is surrendering 111 points per game on average which isn't ideal.

However, considering the number of injuries the Wizards are dealing with at the moment, the Knicks' defense may be against less experienced players tonight. The Wizards have had a tumultuous season for the most part but were looking much sharper a few weeks ago, even besting the Bucks 118-95.

Overall, the Knicks are a dangerous enough offensive unit that an injury-striken Wizards will struggle to keep up.

Prediction: Knicks -3.5 (-110)
