Washington Wizards vs New York Knicks: Current situation
Saturday’s loss was just another example of just how poorly the Wizards have played on the defensive end this season. They are breaking all kinds of negative records on that end, this season have the worst Net Rating in the NBA at -13 points which just shows how many times they’ve been blown out by opponents. Washington is safe in the bottom of the Eastern Conference, with the Toronto Raptors being 2 wins ahead in the win column.
The Knicks are starting to heat up just at the right time. They’ve now won 7 games in a row, coupled with Orlando’s 2 game losing streak they’ve now gotten themselves a solid gap in 3rd place in the Eastern Conference. If this keeps up even the 2nd seeded Celtics aren’t safe anymore. Bettors have also been happy with this team during the win streak with New York covering 5 times in 7 games.
Washington Wizards Stats & Form
Even when the Wizards play solidly on the offensive end, they still cannot find a way to win games. In Saturday’s OT loss to New York they had 7 players score in double-figures, led by Justin Champagnie who had 31 and 10 rebounds. They even had more rebounds, more assists and more blocks than the Knicks, but when your team is lacking a closer in clutch situations you won’t win that many games.
New York Knicks Stats & Form
Of the 136 points scored in Saturday’s win, 85 of them came from Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson as the dynamic duo tortured the Wizards all night long. Mikal Bridges also continued his solid play, the Knicks’ iron man has improved his average to 22.3 points per game compared to just 14.7 in December. New York is 5-0 SU in 5 road games, they are looking to make it 8 wins in a row in Monday’s game.
Washington Wizards vs New York Knicks: Head-to-Head
Saturday’s win was New York’s 7th in a row against the Wizards, which means they’ve swept the regular season series last year and are off to a 2-0 start in this season’s series. They are also a dominant 5-0 SU in their last 5 visits to the Capital One Arena, while from a bettors perspective they’ve covered in 6 of the last 10 head-to-head.

Betting tip and prediction: Washington Wizards vs New York Knicks (30.12.2024)
The Knicks needed 55 points from Jalen Brunson to overcome the Wizards on Saturday night 136-132, as they failed to cover the spread as 12.5-point favorites. The two teams will meet once again on Monday night, as they complete a rare home-and-home series. Normally when two teams play each other two games in a row, the scoring goes down a bit as players become familiar with their opponents’ tendencies. The last 10 meetings have averaged just 227.3 points per game, with the O/U record going 3-6-1 during that stretch. We are also looking at the Knicks to tighten their defense a bit here, over their last 10 outings they rank 6h in defense and allow just 108.4 points per 100 possessions. Washington does play fast, but it’s hard to expect them to shoot over 51% from the field and knock down 17 threes in back-to-back games, this team is 5-24 SU on the season for a reason. New York’s three-ball has gone down a bit, they’ve managed just 4 and 10 threes over their last 2 games, is this trend keeps up they will have to rely more on their defense to win games. With the under cashing in 4 of their last 6 games vs Eastern Conference, we believe that is the bet to go with in Monday’s re-match with the Washington Wizards.
