Expert picks & predictions for Sunday’s Trail Blazers vs. Knicks game
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Blazers to cover:
“Portland is riding a three-game losing streak versus Boston, Cleveland, and Sacramento. The Blazers have had two days off as they traveled to New York to take on the Knicks. Jalen Brunson remains out for the Knicks as New York is 6-5 over 11 games without him. While New York did win in OT versus Portland without Brunson, the Knicks haven’t been playing great basketball beating up on bad teams and losing to good ones (outside of Milwaukee). I don’t think Portland is a bad team, so I lean the Blazers to cover.”
