The New Orleans Pelicans (16-28) travel to Madison Square Garden Thursday to take on the New York Knicks (22-23). Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Pelicans vs. Knicks odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.
The Knicks are coming into this game with just one day of rest following a brutal 2-point loss to the Timberwolves.
New York did cover as 4-point home underdogs. The Knicks have covered in four of their last five games. At home, they’ve oddly been worse at home as well, just 11-13 at MSG as compared to 11-10 on the road.
That said, the Pelicans have covered four of their last six, failing to cover in Boston despite jumping out to an early double-digit lead. New Orleans is just 6-17 overall on the road and 6-13 against the spread (ATS) as a road underdog.
