This Friday Night match-up will see the New York Knicks taking on the Phoenix Suns. Neither team have had a season to brag about, but both have players who could be promising in the future.
New York Knicks
The Knicks finally won their tenth game of the season when they beat the Portland Trail Blazers 117-93 in their last game. They actually have won three games in a row and are showing some improvement.

Offense has been one of the biggest struggles for this Knicks team, averaging just 103.7 points per game. This is ranked as the 28th best scoring offense in the NBA. The Knicks only shoot the ball at 43.1% from the field, which has them ranked 28th in the NBA. As for their three-point shooting, they shoot 34.8% and rank 23rd in the league.
The Knicks do have a couple of stand out players, but no one jumps off the page when looking at their stats. We have Julius Randle leading this team in points per game by averaging 18.8. Right behind him is Marcus Morris Sr, who averages 18.3 points per game.
The problem is both of these guys are low post players, so the Knicks do not really have a guard who can take over with his shooting ability. The closest they have is RJ Barrett, who averages 13.5 points per game.
As for this Knicks defense, they are below average but are not the worst by far. They are allowing 110.9 points per game, the 17th ranked scoring defense this season. Teams shoot a solid 45.8% from the field and they torch them from the three-point line at 38%.
Phoenix Suns
The Suns are starting to struggle, losing to the Lakers last time out by a score of 117-107. They did however cover the spread in this game, which could be a good sign of them remaining competitive throughout the season. Keep in mind that the Suns have just won two of their last ten games.
Despite a poor record, the Suns have been able to put up points consistently. They average 114.1 points per game, which is the 6th best scoring offense in the league.
Of course the Suns are led by Devin Booker. He is by far their best scorer and is averaging 25.2 points per game. Kelly Oubre Jr is also having a solid season and is averaging 18 points per game. Three other guys average at least 10 points per game or more, so they certainly have a balanced scoring attack.
The one thing to keep an eye on is Ricky Rubio’s status. He is dealing with left hip soreness, but is probable for this game.
Unlike the offense, the Suns defense has been horrible to put it nicely. They are the 25th ranked scoring defense, allowing 115.1 points per game. Teams shoot 47.8% from the field against them and 37.3% from the three-point line.

Free New York Knicks vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction:
With DeAndre Ayton coming back recently, it has given the Suns an extra scoring option. I like the Suns to notch the win at home.
However, because both defenses have looked horrible, I like the over to be the play in this game.
