The New York Knicks sneak in a home game amid a glut of roadies when they host the Miami Heat on Monday night. The Knicks are coming off a 2-3 road trip and go back out on another trip after this one, so a win is nearly imperative. The free-falling Heat are a great opponent to have in such a situation and should help New York get into the win column.
Let’s look at the NBA lines and find the best NBA player prop bets.
Heat vs Knicks Score Prediction
While they are struggling without Jalen Brunson, who is out for another week or two, the Knicks are in significantly better shape than the Heat. Miami hasn’t won since March 3 and that was at home against Washington, which only sorta counts. New York will get back on the right track, at least for one night: Knicks 112, Heat 101

Top 3 Heat vs Knicks Best NBA Player Props Today
1. Karl-Anthony Towns Over 25.5 Points (-108)
Karl-Anthony Towns had 29 points in last week’s loss at Golden State as he shows signs of breaking out of a recent slump. He’s shooting 58.3% over the last three games as he learns how to navigate life without Brunson a bit better. Towns scored 44 points against the Heat in his fourth game with New York, per Heat vs Knicks stats, and we expect him to give the MSG fans something to cheer about.

2. Josh Hart Over 9.5 Rebounds (-103)
The Heat aren’t the best on the boards and they miss a good amount of shots. Those two items could help to make this a big night on the glass for Hart, who recently had a 20-rebound game and has hit double digits in seven of his last 12. We love this NBA pick as Hart bounces back from a rough one at Golden State.
Bet on Josh Hart Over 9.5 Rebounds (-103)

3. Duncan Robinson Over 2.5 3-Pointers Made (-109)
Shooters will keep shooting, and that’s what we expect Miami’s Duncan Robinson to do after he went scoreless in a blowout loss at Memphis on Saturday. The Knicks allow the third-highest 3-point percentage (37.3) in the league and Robinson averaged 4.5 makes in his last two trips to New York.
Heat vs Knicks Moneyline Pick
This is almost a gimme for the Knicks, although crazier things have happened. Combine this with another pick or two to get some value out of an NBA parlay.
Heat vs Knicks Spread Pick
Miami is struggling mightily on the offensive end and we don’t necessarily see an end to that in this one. The Heat are also just 12-21-1 against the NBA spread on the road.
Heat vs Knicks Over/Under Pick
These teams went over in their first two matchups, just barely. We’ll go the same route with this NBA bet.
Bet on Heat vs Knicks Over 210.5 (-110)
