The New York Knicks will play host to the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden in the NBA on Friday night. The Knicks (7-4) are second in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Heat (7-5) are eighth. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The New York Knicks will be looking to bounce back to winning ways here after seeing their five-match win streak brought to an end by the Orlando Magic 124-107 on Wednesday night.
Jalen Brunson led the team with 31 points, but he is ruled out for this match due to an ankle sprain, meaning Jordan Clarkson will likely start, and KAT will need to shoulder more responsibility.
New York won three of their four games against Miami last season and are 7-1 at home this term.
Meanwhile, the Miami Heat suffered their first home loss of the season in midweek, going down 130-116 to a Cavaliers side that was missing almost their entire starting roster.
Notably, the Heat are playing at the fastest pace in the league this season. Norman Powell’s acquisition has proven to be an excellent move, and he led the team with 27 points against the Cavs.
Miami are 2-4 on the road this season. Tyler Herro, Terry Rozier and Bam Adebayo are ruled out for the visitors in this one.
