Our NBA Public Betting Information page indicates that 54% of public bettors are currently backing the Knicks when it comes to the spread. This information is subject to change throughout the day, however, so be sure to check the link so you’re receiving the most up-to-date public betting data.

Julius Randle provided solid value on Sunday with 23 points (8-of-16 FGs), five rebounds, five assists, three steals and one 3-pointers against the Hornets. For just the second time this season, Randle didn’t record a double-double. The other game was a 6/6/4 line against Cleveland, so this performance was much better in a big win.

Randle has played really well during this three game wiin streak for the Knicks after a few poor performances in a row. This was also the first time that he made at least half of his field goal attempts this season, which is an encouraging sign for him, since he is shooting 33.6% from the floor this year.

Jayson Tatum finished Friday’s 121-107 win over the Brooklyn Nets with 23 points (6-of-17 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), 10 rebounds, three assists, and four 3-pointers in 33 minutes. The Celtics dominated for most of the 121-107 win over the Nets. Tatum managed to put together a strong performance providing 23 points, 10 rebounds, and three assists in 33 minutes.

Jrue Holiday also posted a balanced stat line with 13 points (6-of-14 FGs), 12 rebounds, nine assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer in 32 minutes. The new-look Celtics have started the season strong but due to the extraordinary amount of talent they have been able to secure, managers who drafted key Celtics players have experienced some inconsistency. Tatum is offering top 20 production but managers are likely waiting for him to flip the switch and take a leap into the top 10.
