WARRIORS VS KNICKS SAME-GAME PARLAY: Kuminga Keeps Rolling

Golden State Warriors moneyline

The Knicks have gone just 8-11 straight-up as a road underdog. The Warriors haven’t been as formidable at home this season as in prior campaigns, but a trip to Chase Center is still one of the biggest challenges in the NBA.

Losses to the Spurs and Bulls are a blemish on the Dubs’ record, but they have also got the better of the Bucks and Lakers in San Francisco over the last few weeks.

Jonathan Kuminga over 17.5 points

Jonathan Kuminga has been on a tear since his public spat with Steve Kerr. The third-year forward has cleared this line in each of his last six games, and 10 of his last 11.

Yes, the Knicks are an elite defense (best defensive rating since the break), but they are without Julis Randle and potentially OG Anunoby, which takes away some of the size that would have been useful to put on Kuminga. Of course, New York is still a good defensive team, but Kuminga will fancy his chances at getting into the twenties once again here.

Steph Curry under 2.5 turnovers

Steph Curry has had two or fewer turnovers in each of his previous four outings. He’s posting his lowest turnover rate since 2018-19.

As good as the Knicks are defensively, they don’t gamble a huge amount. They are only 16th when it comes to forcing opponent turnovers, which suggests Curry could continue his streak of looking after the ball.
