The New York Knicks face-off against the Detroit Pistons in what looks to be a first round matchup preview for the Eastern conference playoffs.

The Knicks have ruled out a number of different players. However, they will still have Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns for this one. That offensive combo has paid dividends this season.

I’m targeting Towns to excel from beyond the arc, even though his volume has dropped a bit of late. OG Anunoby has been on an absolute heater, and that has taken up some of the usage KAT normally sees from 3-point range.

This is a good matchup for him though, as the Pistons usually play a more traditional center in either Jalen Duren or Isaiah Stewart.

KAT has made 3/6 and 4/9 from deep this season against Detroit, and much of this is because both Duren and Stewart are going under screens in a drop coverage.

Given this matchup advantage and some of the more available usage without OG, I expect KAT to make at least two 3s tonight.

Pick: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-110)

Betting is always more about numbers than opinions, and that is especially true when it comes to tonight’s matchup between the Hawks and Nets.

When this line came out at 226.5, my model number had 229 as the correct line, so I played the Over.

Overnight this line moved up to 232.5 and has over corrected. This line will allow books to take action on the Under, and the line will likely close back around 230.

At this point in the cycle of the betting market, take the Under. This is called the resistance point.

Pick: Under 232.5 (-110)

By Bryan Fonseca

This should be a great spot on the boards for Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Giannis has gone over 10.5 boards in three straight games. He’s facing a continually depleted Pelicans squad tonight, and the only concern is whether or not he gets minutes.

Sure, New Orleans is bad, but Milwaukee plays with their food. The Bucks only beat New Orleans by four a couple games ago. Although, Giannis was sidelined for that contest.

Even so, they have two double-digit wins in their last 10 games, covering the spread in seven of those games, the majority of which were competitive all the way through.

But ultimately, who is stopping Giannis on the boards? The answer should be “nobody.”

Pick: Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 10.5 Rebounds (-120)

By Alex Hinton

With tiebreakers and a favorable schedule down the stretch, the Timberwolves were in great shape to get out of the Play-In Tournament and perhaps claim a top-four seed. Then, they blew a 24-point lead in Milwaukee on Tuesday. Still, they have won six of their last eight games.

Minnesota can atone for Tuesday’s collapse a win in Memphis tonight. The Grizzles are a game up on Minnesota for the sixth seed. However, they have lost six of their last 10 games. They also will be without Jaylen Wells, one of their top perimeter defenders, for the foreseeable future. That could mean Anthony Edwards is in store a big night. Edwards has scored 25 points in seven of his last 10 games and in three of his last four against the Grizzlies.

The Timberwolves have won and covered in six of the last 10 meetings. They are currently playing better and are the healthier team entering tonight’s game. I’ll be backing them to escape Memphis with a victory tonight.

Pick: Timberwolves Moneyline (-125)

By Joe Dellera

The Timberwolves face off against the Grizzlies tonight in an incredibly important matchup for positioning within the Western Conference. A win tonight could keep you out of the Play-In Tournament.

I’m targeting Julius Randle here in a matchup he has thrived in. Randle has exceeded this Rebounds + Assists (RA) line in seven consecutive matchups against the Grizzlies, including both matchups this season. His size and strength on the interior has been critical for Minnesota’s success.

Now with Edey playing more minutes and Gobert being tasked with handling him, Randle should get a few extra opportunities to secure the boards against Jaren Jackson Jr., who is a relatively poor rebounder.

Additionally, if Jackson covers him on the other side of the floor, that’s a tougher matchup, and one he can dish to his teammates in.

Randle is averaging 11.7 RA, but considering the importance of this game, I’d be shocked if he played fewer than 25 minutes. When he has seen at least that many minutes, he’s averaging 12.1 RA, and has exceeded this mark in 60% of games.

This is also a clear Pace Up spot against the Grizzlies, and that should present a few extra opportunities.

Pick: Julius Randle Over 11.5 Rebounds + Assists (-125)
