Julius Randle leads the Knicks in points, rebounds and assists as he is averaging 18.5 points, 9.9 grabbing rebounds and serving up 5.1 assists per game. Evan Fournier has been the best shooter from the Knicks while knocking down 2.9 three-pointers per game. RJ Barrett is finally living up to the hype as he is averaging 17.5 points and 5.7 rebounds. 

Los Angeles Lakers vs New York Knicks Match Prediction

The Los Angeles Lakers have a slight advantage over the New York Knicks in this game. Despite being a top defensive team, the Knicks have struggled in their recent games and could struggle in front of the offensive strengths of the Lakers.

New York’s guards have struggled to defend Russell Westbrook as he scored 31 points in their last matchup. Similarly, their bigs co Anthony Davis on the perimeter. Los Angeles has a home record of 16-12 at home this season, giving them another advantage in this matchup. Hence, the Los Angeles Lakers are the favourites to win this game.
