NBA Finals Betting Preview: Spurs vs Knicks

The No. 2 seed San Antonio Spurs (62-20, 29-12 away) take on the No. 3 New York Knicks (53-29, 30-10 at home) in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. The Knicks lead the series 2-0.

Knicks to Come Out on Top

Our prediction is that the Knicks will make home-court advantage count when they take on the Spurs at Madison Square Garden. Odds of -130 look appealing for a New York team that has already taken a 2-0 lead in the series and now returns home with momentum firmly on its side.

The Knicks enter Game 3 on a 13-game postseason winning streak. They have also won each of their last three meetings with the Spurs and seven of the previous 10 head-to-head matchups, including the NBA Cup Final.

Karl-Anthony Towns has been a major factor in the series. Not only has he held his own against Victor Wembanyama, but he has arguably been the most impactful player on either side. If New York goes on to win the title, Towns will have a strong case to be named Finals MVP.

Knicks Stole First Two Games in San Antonio

The Knicks have seized control of the NBA Finals after winning both games at Frost Bank Center. New York opened the series with a 105-95 victory before edging the Spurs 105-104 in a dramatic Game 2 on Friday night.

Karl-Anthony Towns led the Knicks with 21 points and 13 rebounds in Game 2, while Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges each added 20 points. For the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama finished with 29 points, while De'Aaron Fox contributed 20 and Dylan Harper chipped in with 15.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The Knicks enter Game 3 having won three straight meetings with the Spurs and owning a 7-3 record across the last 10 head-to-head matchups.
