NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Knicks to cover:
"It is tanking season in the NBA and the Wizards are fighting for the worst record in the NBA. The Knicks won two of three meetings with the Wizards by 20-plus points already this season. I can only consider ways to bet the Knicks in this game or look at ways of fading the Wizards down the stretch."
