Atlanta won in overtime Saturday night in Boston, 119-115, over the Celtics. Trae Young hit three, 3-pointers and scored 28 to pace the attack for the Hawks. The Knicks have been battling inconsistency winning just 4 of their last 10 games. Friday night they lost at home to the Timberwolves 116-99.

For the game, the Knicks could be without one of their best players, as Karl-Anthony Towns is on the injury report. The four-time NBA All-Star has missed each of the previous two games, so this would be his third straight out of action (if he doesn't play).

The Atlanta Hawks are on a roll while the New York Knicks are sputtering, and playing this one at MSG won't be much of a help for the home team. Look for Trae Young & Co. to coast to at least a cover as sizable underdogs.
