Read our San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks betting predictions below…</p> <h2>San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks: Betting Preview</h2> <p>While the form book will often go out of the window when there are title honours on the line, it can still be a good idea to take a look at how the two teams are performing across the NBA regular season.</p> <p>The Spurs are currently sitting fifth in the Western Conference, with a record of 18-7. Over the last ten games, they are 7-3, entering the game on a three-game winning streak. The Knicks are second in the Eastern Conference, with <strong>Mike Brown’s</strong> team currently second in the standings. They hold an identical record to the Spurs (18-7), but are 9-1 over their last ten games and are enjoying a five-game winning streak.</p> <p>We should expect a solid game between these two teams, as they share a competitive head-to-head record. Over the last five games, the following has happened:</p> <ul> <li>Mar 2025: Spurs 120-105 Knicks</li> <li>Dec 2024: Knicks 117-114 Spurs</li> <li>Mar 2024: Spurs 130-126 Knicks</li> <li>Nov 2023: Knicks 126-105 Spurs</li> <li>Jan 2023: Knicks 117-114 Spurs</li> </ul> <h2>San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks: Betting Predictions</h2> <p>The <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-us/nba/san-antonio-spurs-at-new-york-knicks-9948618">San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks NBA Cup Final betting odds</a> have the<strong> Knicks as the favourites</strong>. Our San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks betting prediction is that the<strong> Knicks will win</strong>, as they enter the game in better form and appear to have the edge over the Spurs.</p> <p>While the home team has won the last five matches in a row, this game will take place in Las Vegas. Still, we expect the designated home team to win this one.</p> <p>Looking at the<strong> points markets</strong>, we think there is value to be had in the ‘<strong>To Score 25+ Points</strong>’ market for<strong> Brunson</strong>. He has surpassed this total in his last five games. We also like the value presented for Towns, as he has achieved this number three times in his last five games.</p>
