New York will try to slow down the Lakers, who have won seven in a row, but the Knicks actually are a half-game better in the standings and they have won 13 of 18 themselves, 14 of 18 outright on the road. The Knicks have covered seven of 10 road games against Los Angeles, which has had a favorable schedule during its streak with the last five being at home. The Lakers always seem to have injury issues and LeBron James (foot) and Luka Doncic (knee) are listed as day-to-day. Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura also are questionable. This is a revenge situation for New York which lost the only meeting this season on Feb. 1. New York expects to have Karl-Anthony Towns back after he missed Tuesday's loss to Golden State for personal reasons. Take the Knicks.

Pro Picks
Los Angeles at New York
Los Angeles enjoyed one of its biggest wins of the season as Austin Reaves totaled 32 points and the Lakers stunned Boston on Thursday 114-105 without LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Both are questionable for this game as the Lakers look for another big victory against New York, which has won nine in a row. The Knicks barely got by Indiana 109-105 and had to overcome a 15-point second-quarter deficit. New York also has some injuries, including O.G. Anunoby, who is questionable with an elbow issue. Los Angeles has covered four of five against teams with .600 winning percentages and it is 5-1 ATS its past six Saturday games. The Lakers want to avenge a 114-109 loss to the Knicks in the only meeting this season. Take the Lakers.
