*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Sunday, December 8th Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, December 9th.
New York Knicks
At the quarter mark, the Knicks are fourth in the Eastern Conference. On Saturday, their four-game winning streak ended no doubt impacted by the absence of Karl-Anthony Towns.
The combo of KAT and Jalen Brunson has the Knicks in first overall offensively while Tom Thibodeau works on getting his charges to improve defensively.
Knicks Stats
New York ranks first offensively (121.1) and 18th defensively (114.1) while their net differential is plus +7.0 which ranks tied for sixth overall.
The Knicks’ performance against the spread is an 11-11-1 record through 23 contests.
Knicks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Karl-Anthony Towns, C (questionable — knee)
- Cameron Payne, PG (questionable — elbow)
- Mitchell Robinson, C (OUT indefinitely — ankle)
Toronto Raptors
After winning three of four contests the young Raptors got a lesson in elite basketball from two of the West’s best (Thunder, Mavericks) and lost both matches.
OKC spanked Toronto, but with Jakob Poeltl and Kelly Olynyk back the Raps had an inside presence coupled with a career best 14 assists from Scottie Barnes that allowed them to be in the mix in clutch time.
Raptors Stats
Toronto ranks 21st on offense (111.0) and 22nd on defense (115.5) while they register a minus -4.4 net differential ranking 24th overall.
The Raptors perform better than their counterpart or their own win/loss standing with a 16-8 record against the spread in 24 games this season.
Raptors Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Bruce Brown Jr., SG (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Immanuel Quickley, PG (OUT indefinitely — elbow)

Free NBA Prediction:
This should be a Knicks victory but if Towns is out again it gives the Raps an edge inside. Factor in the Raptors fight to remain in games regardless of the score and that practice while not equating to wins yet IS putting them in the upper echelon of performers against the spread.
Combine that with the Dinos being at home and I’ll take the points.
