The New York Knicks will play host to the Washington Wizards at Madison Square Garden in the NBA on Sunday night. The Knicks (46-25) are third in Eastern Conference standings, while the Wizards (16-54) are in 14th place. Let’s get into the match prediction!
The New York Knicks are one of the hottest teams in the NBA at present, now riding a five-game win streak after edging the Nets 93-92 on the road on Friday night.
Karl-Anthony Towns led the team with 26 points, followed by a 17-point and eight-assist contribution from Jalen Brunson. The Knicks are now one win behind the second-placed Celtics.
New York have the second-best home record in the East (25-9) and have won their last 10 games against this opponent. Miles McBride and Landry Shamet are out for the hosts.
In complete contrast, the Washington Wizards are one of the coldest teams in the league right now, as they lost their 15th straight game last night, smashed 132-111 by the Thunder.
The Wizards did well to remain in the contest against OKC in the first three quarters, but they collapsed in Q4, allowing 29 points while only scoring 15. Bilal Coulibaly top-scored with 21 points.
Washington have only won five of 33 away games this season and will be without Trae Young, Tre Johnson, Anthony Davis and Kyshawn George for this match.

Our New York Knicks vs Washington Wizards Prediction
The Knicks are obvious favourites here, currently on a five-game win streak and hunting down the Celtics for second place in the Conference. However, they weren’t entirely convincing against the Nets last time out.
Given the visitors' poor form and playing the end of a back-to-back, this line is massive, but the Wizards have covered the spread in four of their last five games as double-digit underdogs. For us, the safer play here is the under. Our New York Knicks vs Washington Wizards prediction is under 232.5 points.
If your team in the New York Knicks and Washington Wizards game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
