Knicks, Celtics, Lakers Lead NBA Game Predictions

The New York Knicks are favored to cover the spread against the Miami Heat, who are struggling with a seven-game losing streak and have failed to cover in their last five outings. Luka Doncic is expected to lead a high-scoring game for the Los Angeles Lakers against the San Antonio Spurs, despite the absence of LeBron James. Quentin Grimes is anticipated to continue his scoring streak for the Philadelphia 76ers in their matchup against the Houston Rockets. Desmond Bane is set to step up for the Memphis Grizzlies in the absence of Ja Morant against the Sacramento Kings. The Washington Wizards may capitalize on the Denver Nuggets' weakened perimeter defense in their upcoming game. In another matchup, the Boston Celtics are expected to win decisively over the Brooklyn Nets, who are missing key players.
