Knicks Game Tonight: Knicks vs Spurs Odds, Starting Lineup, Injury Report, Predictions, TV Channel for Jan. 4
The New York Knicks (20-18) will look to get revenge for their 122-115 loss to the Spurs (12-25) last week on Wednesday when San Antonio will be at Madison Square Garden. The latest odds favor the Knicks.
New York put an embarrassing effort on display in its first matchup against San Antonio, but since then, the Knicks have won two straight games over the Rockets and Suns. The Dec. 29 loss to the Spurs was the end of the Knicks’ five-game losing streak.
San Antonio followed up its win over New York with two straight losses to Dallas and then Brooklyn. Keldon Johnson, who dropped 30 against the Knicks, is averaging a career-high 21.5 points. He’ll be New York’s main focus on the defensive end.
Looking ahead at the Knicks’ next two games, New York will travel to Toronto before returning to MSG to host Milwaukee. A win over the Spurs would not only extend the Knicks’ winning streak to three, but it’d also be a boost before playing two challenging games.

New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs Prediction
New York never should’ve lost to San Antonio last week in the first place, but the Knicks were without Jalen Brunson in that game. The point guard returned in Monday’s win and put up 24 points and dished out six assists. Now that Brunson’s back in the lineup, New York should be able to avenge last week’s loss in San Antonio.
Julius Randle’s 41 points weren’t enough to beat the Spurs a few days ago, but given the All-Star level that he’s been playing on along with the Knicks’ much-improved defense, San Antonio should leave NYC with two Ls.
New York 113, San Antonio 104
