New York Knicks vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction & Picks (Landry Shamet Key Factor): Winning Game Angles

As the Knicks gear up to face the Spurs, all eyes will be on Dylan Harper-and particularly on his three-point shooting. While Harper has shown flashes of brilliance, we believe he'll fall short of the 1.5 threes made mark in this matchup. Looking at his recent performances, he's averaging just 1.0 three-pointer per game on the road, and when facing San Antonio, that number dips dramatically to 0.4. The Spurs are notoriously stingy from beyond the arc, and Harper has struggled historically against them, sinking only two threes in his last five encounters. Sure, he's been hot lately, hitting his last three attempts, but the trend shows he typically cools off against tougher defenses. With an implied probability of 65.4% for him to stay under, betting on Harper to hit fewer than 1.5 threes feels like a solid play in this matchup.

Keldon Johnson (San Antonio Spurs) Over 7.5 Points + Rebounds (-208)

As the Spurs head into New York, all eyes should be on Keldon Johnson, especially with the over set at 7.5 for his combined points and rebounds. The young forward has turned it up on the road lately, averaging 11.2 points and 2.8 rebounds in his last five away games. That's a solid jump from his overall averages, showcasing his ability to step up when the stakes are high.Johnson has found success against the Knicks, consistently landing around 7 points when facing them, though he's shown he can elevate his game away from home. With a remarkable 15 out of his last 20 games hitting this mark, and a perfect 5-for-5 recently in away matchups, it's safe to say he's in form. Expect him to exceed that 7.5 line against a Knicks team still figuring out its defensive identity.

De'Aaron Fox (San Antonio Spurs) Over 13.5 Points + Rebounds (-345)

As the San Antonio Spurs gear up to face the New York Knicks, all eyes should be on De'Aaron Fox. The young guard has been a scoring machine on the road, averaging an impressive 16.2 points away from home. His recent performances against the Knicks have seen him notch up 15.6 points per game, with his overall hit rate skyrocketing to 16 out of his last 20 games. Fox's ability to contribute on the glass shouldn't be overlooked either. He's been pulling down about 3 rebounds per game away, which complements his scoring nicely. Given that he's consistently eclipsed the 13.5 mark in a staggering 15 of his last 16 away games, it feels like a no-brainer to bet the over as he steps onto the court with confidence and determination. Expect Fox to shine in this matchup, making the over on his points and rebounds a solid play.

Mikal Bridges (New York Knicks) Over 13.5 Points + Rebounds (-189)

As the New York Knicks gear up to take on the San Antonio Spurs, all eyes should be on Mikal Bridges for a solid points and rebounds performance. Playing at home, Bridges has been on a tear, averaging 14.8 points and 4 rebounds over his last five games on familiar turf. His numbers against the Spurs are encouraging too; he's dropped an impressive 18.6 points per game at home against them, showcasing his ability to elevate his game in key matchups.What's particularly striking is Bridges' recent form, hitting the Over in 10 of his last 12 outings. With an expected stat value of 19.43 and his growing synergy with the Knicks' offense, it's hard to overlook the potential here. The implied probability of 65.4% hints that this might just be a lock. Betting on Bridges to exceed that 13.5 threshold feels like a wise move in this matchup.

Josh Hart (New York Knicks) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-125)

As the New York Knicks gear up to face the San Antonio Spurs, all eyes will be on Josh Hart and his three-point shooting. While he's had some solid performances at home, the numbers suggest a compelling case for the under on 1.5 threes made. Over his last five games, Hart has averaged just 1.4 threes, and his history against the Spurs indicates he's likely to hover around 1.2 makes per game when facing them. At home, he's slightly better, averaging 2.4, but keep in mind that the Spurs rank well defensively against the perimeter. With Hart hitting the mark just 75% of the time at home in his last nine games, the under is looking increasingly enticing. Given the context, targeting the under feels like a smart play in this matchup.
