On the other side, the Knicks are just 2-5 against the spread in their last seven games following a double-digit loss at home. They’ll also be without Kristaps Porzingis, who has been ruled out for tonight’s game due to a shoulder injury. With him out again, Derrick Williams will trade another start after he had 17 points and 10 rebounds in his previous outing.
With New York on cruise control, this is a good spot to grab the home underdog that is trying to earn its second consecutive victory.
