💰 Best Warriors vs. Knicks prop bet

Gui Santos Under 16.5 points (-120)

The Warriors are missing a lot of bodies, and that's forced forward Gui Santos to step up. He will probably struggle tonight, however - the Knicks allow the second-fewest points in the paint per game (38.5) since the All-Star Break and are playing at the sixth-slowest pace.

Santos has a three-ball, but he does the majority of his damage inside: over the last seven games, he ranks second on the roster in points in the paint per game (8.3), which makes up 55.7% of his total points. Back him to stay Under 16.5 for -120 (54.6%) at FanDuel.

🔥 More Warriors vs. Knicks prop picks

Mitchell Robinson Under 8.5 rebounds

The Warriors are missing a bunch of key pieces, so I don't expect a standard game from the Knicks and head coach Mike Brown. It'll be a good spot to give new pieces and younger players some run, which will likely come at the expense of injury-prone Mitchell Robinson.

Robinson is coming off a monstrous 22-rebound game in which he returned to the starting five and played 31 minutes. He should slide back onto the bench this evening and will struggle to replicate that performance with less volume - he is averaging just 19.5 minutes per game this year.

This prop is -132 at sharp offshores, so lock in the -112 (52.8%) at bet365 before it disappears.

🚀 Warriors vs. Knicks same-game parlay

Let's lock in the Knicks to cover with the above two bets. The Warriors just don't have enough bodies to keep up with the Knicks tonight, and it should be a bloodbath as a result. Although they're currently in line for a trip to the play-in tournament (and probably can't fall out), it's looking like another season to forget for Golden State.

Follow all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.

I'm targeting the above two player props for two units apiece, and that's about it. Tonight's Warriors vs. Knicks game won't be great - the injury report guarantees that - but there is still enough value on the betting markets to warrant some action (and some attention).
