Conference heavyweights collide on Sunday afternoon as the New York Knicks host the San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden.

San Antonio has won 11 straight, but my Spurs vs Knicks predictions expect the home team to snap that win streak behind a strong performance from Jalen Brunson.

Here are my best free NBA picks for this powerhouse showdown on Sunday, March 1.

Spurs vs Knicks prediction

Spurs vs Knicks best bet: Knicks moneyline (+100)

The San Antonio Spurs’ 11-game, fool’s gold win streak will be snapped today as they face their toughest matchup of the last month. San Antonio delivered a big win over the Detroit Pistons, but otherwise, their recent wins have come against shorthanded squads and lottery-bound teams. 

The New York Knicks are healthy aside from Miles McBride’s absence, and they get home-court advantage after three games on the road.

The Knicks are 22-8 straight up and a league-best 19-11 ATS at home. New York has won and covered in its only game as the home underdog.

Spurs vs Knicks same-game parlay

The San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks hit the Over in both head-to-head matchups this season, and with both squads mostly healthy, I expect plenty of points once again. The Spurs have hit the Over in seven of their last 10 games overall, and the team is 9-8 to the Over as the road favorite.

Jalen Brunson has averaged 27.8 points per game at home, and he's scored 27+ in 14 of 28 at Madison Square Garden. He's scored 20, 33, 40, and 42 in his last four home games, and he delivered a 29-point performance in his last matchup with the Spurs. He'll have no issues clearing this scoring line in a primetime matchup at home.

Our "from downtown" SGP: Knicks come up big

Mitchell Robinson has grabbed 8+ rebounds in 25 of 43 games overall, including 13 of 23 at home. He's corralled 9.1 boards per game at MSG, and he should see additional run in this one to counter the size of Victor Wembanyama and Luke Kornet.
