Suns at Knicks odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 108, Knicks 101

Money line

The Suns have been rolling. Six games of their 14-game win streak have come on the road and they're 3-0 against Eastern Conference teams.

The Knicks are only 5-5 at home this season, although they have won three of their last four at Madison Square Garden.

However, the Suns are healthy and there is no reason to believe they can't continue this streak.

Take the SUNS (-160).

Against the spread

The Suns are only 9-9 ATS on the year despite their 15-3 record and have covered the spread in only one of their last six games.

The Knicks is 8-10 ATS on the year and are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games. New York is 4-6 ATS at home this season.

Take the SUNS -3.5 (-110) against such a small spread.

Over/Under

The Suns' last four games finished Over the projected total but the four prior to that stayed Under. They are 8-10 O/U on the year.

The Knicks are 6-12 O/U overall and their last eight games have stayed Under the projected total.

Take UNDER 216.5 (-112).
