Wizards vs Knicks NBA Preview
The Knicks will host the Wizards tonight. So, naturally we want to target props for New York players on the interior.
Opposing centers have absolutely destroyed the Wizards over the past few weeks — most notably highlighted by Bam Adebayo's historic 83-point performance against them.
The Wizards struggle to defend the rim and beyond the arc — which are two areas where Karl-Anthony Towns excels.
Towns also generates a bunch of contact, which forces free throws — another spot where he can make a living in this matchup against the Wizards.
Wizards vs Knicks Predictions, Betting Analysis
The biggest concern here is the possibility of a blowout.
If the Knicks run away with this game early, it could cost Towns some minutes.
However, with Josh Hart and Landry Shamet on the injury report for New York heading into this game, the Knicks will likely choose to utilize KAT more than usual tonight — especially in such a highly favorable matchup against the Wizards.
Pick: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 21.5 Points (-110)
