*Odds as of Saturday afternoon

The Knicks entered the 2021-22 season fresh off the best cover rate in basketball, while the Lakers tied for the shortest preseason title odds.

To call the current campaign underwhelming for the two storied teams would be a sheer understatement: They both enter Saturday’s tilt under .500 straight-up and against the spread.

The Lakers own the sixth-worst cover rate in basketball (43.4%); the Knicks are 12th (25-27, 48.1%).

Though the two have been wallet-burners virtually all season, public bettors are clearly flocking to one side for Saturday’s clash.

But is it the sharp side?

Lakers-Knicks PRO Pick


At the time of writing, 77% of tickets and more than 90% of the money is on the Lakers minus the points.

However, despite the light handle flowing in on the Knicks, some of the action we tracked was sharp money.

Another reason to like New York? The franchise fits our Road Dogs Off ATS Loss (PRO) system, the top-rated NBA betting model in our database cashing at a blistering-hot 63%.

We’re seeing mainly -2’s painted around the market, but those with the flexibility to shop can find a 2.5 at PointsBet if they’re keen on the road squad.

PRO Pick: Knicks +2.5
