New York at Toronto

New York just finished a five-game homestand and now heads out on the road. They've failed to cover two in a row, including a 128-112 loss at home to the Lakers as a double-digit favorite. The Knicks had to play last night, a 124-118 comeback win against the Houston Rockets. They played without starting forward OG Anunoby for the first time this season (sprained right foot). Four starters topped 34 minutes including Dillon Brooks' 40 minutes. While the Knicks played last night and will be playing their third game in four days, Toronto is working on a day of rest. Toronto is on an 8-2 SU/ATS run and has covered eight of ten as an underdog. The Raptors play their third straight at home after knocking off the Clippers, 115-108, as a +5.5 dog. The defense has improved significantly allowing 110.4 points per game in January, 11th best in the NBA during the month. Play Toronto.
