New York Knicks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Pick – 2/21/2025


The New York Knicks (37-18) are set to clash with the Cleveland Cavaliers (45-10) on February 21, 2025, at 7:00 PM ET at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. This matchup comes as both teams are navigating back-to-back games, which could present a challenge for their players due to limited rest.

Cleveland enters this contest as a strong favorite, reflected in the current spread of Cavaliers -8.5 and a moneyline of -345, giving them an implied win probability of 75%. Meanwhile, the Knicks, despite their solid performance in recent weeks—winning 34 of their last 50 games—find themselves with a 25% implied win probability, backed by a moneyline of +285.

Both teams are riding momentum, with the Knicks coming off a narrow 113-111 victory against the Chicago Bulls, while the Cavaliers recently secured a convincing 110-97 win over the Brooklyn Nets. However, the fatigue factor could play a significant role in this game, particularly for the Knicks, who will have less time to recover after their last outing.

For those looking at player prop markets, keep an eye on Karl-Anthony Towns's points and rebounds, which is generating interest among bettors. Additionally, sharp money seems to be gravitating toward the Under, as many believe the current line of Under 38.5 Points and Rebounds (-115) offers value.
