Trae Young is averaging 25.3 ppg and 9.1 assists per game, proving his doubters wrong once again. The Knicks could be without Derrick Rose and Taj Gibson once again, two very important rotational players. Hawks to cover for the 7th time in 8 games here.

Phoenix played last night and beat the Knicks for their 15th straight victory, now they face off with one of the East contenders the Nets.

Nets are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 teams vs Pacific Division teams.

New Orleans Pelicans ML over Utah Jazz (+610)
The Pelicans shocked the world last night and actually beat the Utah Jazz by one point thanks to a last second three-pointer by Devonte Graham. The Jazz really struggled, their superstar Donovan Mitchell once again failed to crack the 20-point mark and is shooting under 30% in two of his last 3 games. New Orleans is slowly turning things around, they’ve won 2 in a row and 3 of their last 5 games. Brandon Ingram is playing at a high level and they just announced Zion Williamson has been cleared to play following a foot injury. He probably won’t take the court tonight, but the Pelicans have proven they are able to beat the Jazz last night. They have 2 wins in the last 3 meetings, so why not try our luck once again?
