Damn it. Listen to Buckets. Knicks played Heat last.

The Knicks suffered a significant loss with Julius Randle experiencing a dislocated right shoulder. This will open up a massive amount of Usage for the Knicks to fill. I would expect OG Anunoby (14.7%) to see a significant uptick in Usage as the Knicks look for some more creation. OG Anunoby's points prop is set for 18.5, he has exceeded this number in just 4 of 14 games with the Knicks, but with the void that Randle is leaving coupled with the bigger offensive role Anunoby had hinted at wanting in Toronto, this is an opportunity for him to shine. Pascal Siakam is a similar comp to Randle in terms of Usage and position. In 10 games on the Raptors without Siakam last season, Anunoby averaged 22.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.6 assists and exceeded this 18.5 line in 7 of the 10 games while averaging 8.4 FGM on 18.2 FGA. This matchup against a soft Hornets’ defense is exploitable, and whether he is creating his own shot or Brunson is finding him slashing to the rim, there is plenty of opportunity for Anunoby to exceed his points prop here.
