Betting on the New York Knicks
The Knicks had a 37-45 record last season, which saw them finish just one spot below 10th in the Eastern Conference, and fail to qualify for the NBA postseason for just the second time since 2014. This time, they’ll be hoping that the arrival of a quality player like Jalen Brunson helps provide a boost for the team.
While opening the season on the road may be challenging, the New York franchise had a 20-21 away record last season and will be eager to prove in this clash that they are in for big things in this new season.
Betting on the Memphis Grizzlies
The evolution of the Memphis Grizzlies in recent years has been fascinating, and it reached its zenith last season when the franchise managed to finish second in the Western Conference during the regular season with a 56-26 record. Despite being eliminated in the conference semifinals, they can be proud that they did so against the eventual conference champions.
The Grizzlies are expected to compete at the top again this 2022-23, even though injuries to Danny Green and Jaren Jackson Jr. in this early season could mean that it’ll be a while before we see their best version.
JefeBet Prediction
Memphis may be a better-assembled and more composed squad than the Knicks, but some of the absences they’ll have for this game turn this into a more even game than one might think in its first meeting of the regular season.
Additionally, New York put up a fight against Memphis when it last visited FedExForum,losing by just four points (114-118). Considering this, we anticipate a similar clash tonight, especially after the Knicks had good preseason performances, with a 3-1 record and allowing less than 100 points on two occasions.
Prediction: New York Knicks Spread (NYK 109 – MEM 113)
