Knicks vs. Pelicans Prediction, Odds & How to Watch – Tuesday, March 24

Akash

The New York Knicks look to extend their six‑game winning streak when they host the New Orleans Pelicans at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night. Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET, with coverage on Gulf Coast Sports, Pelicans+, and MSG. The Knicks are rolling, fresh off a 145‑113 blowout win over Washington, powered by Karl‑Anthony Towns’ 26 points and 16 rebounds.

Jalen Brunson continues to lead the team with 26.1 points per game, while OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges provide two‑way balance. The Pelicans, meanwhile, have dropped four of their last five on the road and are coming off a narrow 111‑106 loss to Cleveland.

Zion Williamson remains their focal point, averaging 21.3 points, but New Orleans has struggled to find consistency despite Trey Murphy III’s shooting. With the Knicks favored by nine points and the total set at 231.5, this matchup pits New York’s defensive strength against New Orleans’ recent ATS surge.

Best Bet for Knicks vs. Pelicans

Best Bet: New York Knicks -9 (-110) at BetMGM Sportsbook

The Knicks’ current form makes them the sharper side. They’ve won six straight SU and five of their last six at home, while New Orleans has gone just 1‑4 SU in its last five road games. The Pelicans have been excellent ATS recently (8‑1 in their last nine), but their offense has sputtered against elite defenses, and New York ranks seventh in points allowed.

The Knicks have also gone 5‑1 SU in their last six against Western Conference opponents, showing their ability to handle cross‑conference matchups. While the total trends lean UNDER for both teams, New Orleans has hit the UNDER in six straight, and New York has gone UNDER in five of its last six against the Pelicans, the spread feels safer. With Brunson’s scoring and Towns’ rebounding anchoring the Knicks, they should cover the nine‑point line at home.
