Knicks computer picks

Jalen Brunson Under 25.5 points (+100)

Projection: 24.6 points

This season, opposing starting point guards are averaging just 11.3 shot attempts per game — the fewest in the NBA — against the Charlotte Hornets. That makes for a challenging matchup for Jalen Brunson, who has gone Under his 25.5-point line in five of his last 10 games.

The Hornets also rank third-lowest in the league, allowing just 2.9 free-throw attempts per game to opposing starting PGs. That limited access to the line further suppresses Brunson’s scoring opportunities.

Mitchell Robinson Over 7.5 rebounds (-125)

Projection: 7.7 rebounds

Over the last 10 games, the New York Knicks rank second in the NBA with 13.4 offensive rebounds per game.

With the Hornets’ pace, New York should see even more opportunities on the glass—especially for Mitchell Robinson, who has surpassed his 7.5-rebound line in eight of the last 10 games.

Josh Hart Over 4.5 assists (-140)

Projection: 4.9 assists

Josh Hart has been a steady facilitator for the Knicks, hitting the Over on his 4.5-assist line in four of his last 10 games. Tonight’s matchup against the Hornets sets up well for Hart to do it again.

Charlotte struggles to contain versatile wings who can distribute off the bounce, and their defensive rotations can leave passing lanes open for cutters and spot-up shooters. Hart excels in exploiting those openings, especially against a team that plays at a moderate pace and can get stretched out defensively.

Hornets computer picks

LaMelo Ball Over 19.5 points (-115)

Projection: 20.0 points

The Hornets have been playing at the 8th-fastest pace in the NBA over their last five home games, and facing the Knicks presents a prime opportunity to get to the free-throw line.

Opposing starting point guards have averaged 4.3 free-throw attempts per game against New York this season — the sixth-highest mark in the league — giving LaMelo Ball a chance to boost his numbers with trips to the line.

Ball has also cleared his 19.5-point line in seven of his last 10 games, making another strong scoring performance likely tonight.

Kon Knueppel Under 3.5 3-pointers (-105)

Projection: 3.2 3-pointers

The Hornets are likely to see fewer opportunities tonight, facing a Knicks squad that ranks third-slowest in pace over their last 10 games.

That slower tempo could limit Kon Knueppel’s chances from beyond the arc, especially given he’s gone Under his 3.5 three-point line in four of his last 10 games.

Moussa Diabate Over 8.5 rebounds (-135)

Projection: 8.9 rebounds

The Hornets rank as the top offensive rebounding team in the NBA at home over their last 20 games, averaging 13.7 boards per contest.

Moussa Diabate has played a key role in that production, surpassing his 8.5-rebound line in seven of his last 10 games.
