Knicks vs Raptors prediction
Knicks vs Raptors best bet: Raptors moneyline (-125)
The New York Knicks have dominated this matchup, but the Toronto Raptors are playing well, winning their last four games, and more importantly, they play a style of basketball that can frustrate New York.
The Knicks rely heavily on the 3-ball this season, ranking eighth in attempts and fourth in makes per game. The Raptors allow the second-lowest 3-point shooting percentage.
Meanwhile, New York is a middling 16th in defensive rating, while Toronto’s offense is starting to come around again, thanks to a healthy RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley playing his best basketball.
There’s value in the Raps to win this one outright.

Let’s get back to Quickley. The Raps’ guard has looked like his best self for a while now, but sportsbooks are still undervaluing his ability to get buckets.
Quickley is averaging 19.4 points and 6.3 assists over his last 17 games. Yet we are still getting points and assists props at 16.5 and 5.5.
The Knicks allow the most points and assists per game in the NBA to opposing guards.
Let's bank on a big night for IQ vs. his former team.
