Kemba Walker UNDER 14.5 Points (-130)

The New York Knicks have several options on offense and Walker has been deferring to those options in the early part of the season. Outside of his 19-point game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Walker has been under 14.5 points in each game this season. 

A majority of his shots have been coming from three, which makes his scoring a boom-or-bust situation. With Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso set to chase him around all night, I’ll gladly take the under and watch the rest of the Knicks carry the offense. -- Donnavan Smoot

Desmond Bane OVER 13.5 Points (-112)

Bane has cleared this total with ease in each of his first four games, he's yet to score less than 17 points. Even if he has a bad shooting night, the second-year Memphis Grizzlies guard has played 30 or more minutes in all but one game, and that was Wednesday night. 

With some tired legs on a road trip, I expect Bane to play more than the 23 minutes he got last night. The volume will surely be there for him, he's averaging more than 14 field goal attempts so far.

I'll keep betting on Bane until the market corrects. -- Reed Wallach

Mitchell Robinson OVER 7.5 Rebounds (-140) and OVER 7.5 Points (+110)

Mitchell Robinson has been a welcome addition back to the Knicks' lineup and is averaging 8.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game this season.

Tonight, Robinson goes up against Nikola Vucevic, who is a great offensive player, but he has his limitations on the defensive end.

I think the Bulls' No. 2 defensive rating is a product of the weak opponents they've faced this season, and I think we're getting a chance to buy low on Robinson after All-NBA defender Joel Embiid held him to seven points on Tuesday.

As for his rebounds prop, Mitch has picked up 17, nine, 10 and six boards in his four games this season. He played a season-low in minutes due to foul trouble against the Sixers, and as long as Nerlens Noel is out, Mitch is going to push 30 minutes for this Knicks team every night. 

He should clear this rebounds prop, even against Vucevic, as the Knicks center has averaged four offensive rebounds alone per game this season. -- Peter Dewey
