Knicks vs. Nuggets Prediction, Odds & How to Watch – Wednesday, February 4

Akash

The New York Knicks (32‑18) are riding high on a seven‑game winning streak as they welcome the Denver Nuggets (33‑18) to Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, February 4, 2026. Tip‑off is set for 7 p.m. ET, with coverage on ESPN, ALT2, and MSG.

The Knicks enter as 6‑point favorites, while the total sits at 226.5 points. New York has been dominant at home, winning nearly 80% of its games as a moneyline favorite in the Garden, while Denver has proven resilient on the road, covering 18 of 27 away contests.

The Knicks’ offense, led by Jalen Brunson and Karl‑Anthony Towns, averages 117.9 points per game, while Denver counters with Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray powering a 120‑point average. Both teams have leaned toward overs this season, combining for nearly 238 points per game, well above the posted total.

With New York’s defense ranked sixth in points allowed and Denver’s offense ranked second in scoring, this matchup sets the stage for a thrilling clash of styles and momentum.

Best Bet for Knicks vs. Nuggets

Best Bet: Nuggets +6 (-110) at DraftKings

Denver’s ability to score efficiently makes them a strong play to cover the spread. The Nuggets average 120 points per game, second in the league, and when they score more than 111.8 points, they are 28‑10 overall and 24‑14 ATS.

The Knicks have been excellent at home, but their ATS record as favorites of six or more points is 15‑7‑1, showing occasional vulnerability when laying larger spreads. Denver has thrived as underdogs of six or more, posting a 6‑1 ATS record in those situations.

Jokic’s playmaking and Murray’s shooting give Denver multiple avenues to keep this game close, even against New York’s stout defense. The Knicks’ seven‑game win streak and strong home record suggest they may win outright, but the Nuggets’ offensive firepower and ATS trends point toward them covering the +6 spread.

With both teams combining for nearly 238 points per game, the total leans over, but the sharper side remains Denver against the number.
