My model favors the Knicks. The Hornets are again without starters LaMelo and Hayward, while Knicks without Mitchell. The scoring and play making will be harder to replace for the Hornets than the defense of Mitchell. Tonight’s game will be led by Rozier and Randle for their respective team – both players will be very productive. With that said, the Knicks are playing at home with a spectacular 9 game ATS win streak. I don’t see that ending tonight. I’m with the Knicks.

My model favors the Grizzlies. The Bulls are without their All-Star Zach LaVine, that’s a loss of 27 pts per game. So instead of expending energy chasing LaVine, Grayson Allen will have a big night and redeem himself for the two missed free throws that cost the Grizzlies in the last game vs the Mavericks. Chicago has not covered their last four ATS. Lay the points.

My model favors the Nuggets. I placed my bet this morning with a half pt buy at -4. The line moved to -6 this pm, even at that number, it is good value and in my model’s range. Miami is heading into a B2B Road coming off a 20 pt loss to the Suns. It’s 645pm and Jimmy Butler’s ankle is still in question, he may not even suit up. Even though the Nuggets are without Murray, i think the trio of Porter, Jokic and Gordon should be enough to cover.
