Dallas Mavericks forward PJ Washington has been impressive on the glass, racking up 7+ rebounds in four of his last five games.

I’m eyeing him to keep that going tonight against the New York Knicks in my Knicks vs Mavericks predictions at American Airlines Center.

Knicks vs Mavericks prediction

Knicks vs Mavericks best bet: PJ Washington Over 6.5 rebounds (-115)

PJ Washington is having a very solid campaign overall for the struggling Dallas Mavericks, averaging 15 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while shooting 44.7% from the field.

The 27-year-old has been one of the team’s best rebounders, which has proven to be important with Anthony Davis battling injury. 

Washington has cashed the Over in boards in two of his last three contests, grabbing seven rebounds apiece against the Minnesota Timberwolves and Portland Trail Blazers. He only faced the New York Knicks once last season, but Washington made his presence felt inside, bringing down 10 rebounds. 

Washington will do his thing on the glass tonight and cash the Over for a third straight contest.

Knicks vs Mavericks same-game parlay

Regardless of whether Jalen Brunson suits up or not, Karl-Anthony Towns’ points total is too high. 

KAT is averaging right around 21 points per game, yet his total is 26.5. He’s cashed the Under in four of his last six and has played much worse on the road, only averaging 16.8 PPG. 

Even if Brunson doesn’t play, New York is a deep team. Yes, it's 0-4 on the road this season, but Dallas is also 3-7 at home and is missing both Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis.
