The New York Knicks (50-31) visit the Brooklyn Nets (26-55) on Sunday, April 13, 2025, at the Barclays Center.
This is the fourth time that the Knicks and Nets will face each other this season. The Knicks have won all three games against their crosstown rivals. Two of those games were very close ones though, with the Knicks only having a 5.3-point winning margin against the Nets.
Moreover, it looks like the Knicks will rest their starters in this game. After all, they have already locked the 3rd seed in the Eastern Conference, with a first-round playoff matchup against Cade Cunningham and the Detroit Pistons just around the corner. As of writing, Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Josh Hart are listed in the team's injury report.
As for the Nets, D'Angelo Russell, Cam Johnson, and Day'Ron Sharpe will sit out against the Knicks. They have lost their last two games, including four of their last five.
But with the possibility of the Knicks resting their key players, the Nets have what it takes to pull off an upset or keep this close. Look for Nets guard Keon Johnson to lead their attack and maximize their playing minutes at this point of the season.

Our Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks Prediction
It has been a disappointing week for the Knicks, who have lost their last three games. Their defense has been exposed during that span, something that you don't want to see heading into the playoffs.
Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau could choose to play his starters, but this is a no-bearing game for them. They might opt to rest their key players and get them ready for the playoffs. Our prediction for the Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks match is: Nets (+7.5) cover the spread.Prediction:
