The Knicks haven’t had much luck on the West Coast, but they could get a breather against a Jazz squad that lacks the same firepower.

The New York Knicks head to Utah looking to bounce back from a tough start to their west coast trip.

New York dropped back-to-back games in Los Angeles, completing a stretch where they played 12 playoff contenders in 16 games.

Now, the Knicks get to play just their fourth opponent with a losing record since February 4. My Knicks vs. Jazz predictions & NBA picks look for New York to get a cover on Wednesday, March 11.

Knicks vs Jazz prediction

Knicks vs Jazz best bet: Knicks -14.5 (-110)

The New York Knicks will relish the chance to play the outmanned Jazz. New York has played more games against .700 teams (4) than sub .500 teams (3) over the last 16. The Utah Jazz has played three losing foes in the last five, producing the 4-1 ATS record that has them as a trendy upset pick here.

This will be just New York’s fourth game this season with a point spread this large. They’re 3-0 ATS, winning by an average of 28.7 points. Utah has two 30-point losses in the five games where they’ve been this large an underdog, going 3-2 ATS.

Knicks vs Jazz same-game parlay

The Knicks play at the No. 24 pace in the NBA, the Jazz at No. 5. Something’s got to give. Utah has played just five games this season with an Over/Under cutoff this low. New York has gone Under in four of their last five with a cutoff this high.

Mikal Bridges has struggled with consistency scoring this season and appears to be taking on more of a “glue” role in recent games. He’s played fewer than 30 minutes and taken fewer than 10 shots in each of the last three games—both are his longest streaks of the season.

Meanwhile, his rebounding and assist rates are both up. It may only be a temporary change, but it should last at least another game.

Our "from downtown" SGP: Rebounds aplenty for Knickerbockers

Utah has been outrebounded on the year and is slightly below average on both the offensive and defensive boards. That’s what makes the Knicks’ rebounding props so odd. Whatever the reason, there are bargains to be had.  

OG Anunoby has pulled down 21 boards in the last three games. He’s been below five just once in the last six games.

Karl-Anthony Towns has had 12 or more in each of the last seven, averaging 13.9 over that span. Neither is a lock to hit their over, but they’re definitely priced right with both in plus odds.

Knicks vs Jazz SGP

  • Knicks -14.5
  • Mikal Bridges Over 3.5 assists
  • OG Anunoby Over 5.5 rebounds
  • Karl-Anthony Towns Over 12.5 rebounds
