Warriors to win (-210) at Knicks -- FanDuel, 3:43 PM CT
The Knicks are down R.J. Barrett and are facing the Warriors at close to full strength, so I'm not anticipating Golden State having much trouble here. The Warriors are playing like the best team in the NBA, while the Knicks are in the bottom third of the league. Steph Curry also needs just two threes to break the all-time three-point record, which should fire up the team as a whole.

Patty Mills OVER 14.5 points (-102) vs. Toronto Raptors -- FanDuel Sportsbook, 2PM CT
With the Nets down DeAndre' Bembry and Jevon Carter in addition to Joe Harris, Mills is in a great spot to move into an increased role -- especially if Kevin Durant ends up missing this game, as well. Either way, Mills should be locked into 35-plus minutes as -- at worst -- the third offensive option. Mills' scoring numbers have been inconsistent of late, but getting to 15 points in this situation shouldn't be too much to ask.
Toronto Raptors moneyline (+175) at Brooklyn Nets -- FanDuel Sportsbook, 2PM CT
Let me be clear: if Kevin Durant plays tonight, I reserve the right to revoke this bet. But Durant was added to the injury report this morning with a sore ankle, and I wouldn't be shocked if he's held out for precautionary reasons, especially with the Nets already down several role players due to COVID-19 protocols. In that scenario, Brooklyn would essentially be left with only James Harden, and we saw how that played out against Houston last week.
