The New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets face off Tuesday in a battle for the Big Apple, and we're offering our top Knicks vs. Nets player props based on the best NBA odds.

The New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets meet Tuesday in a crosstown clash between two NBA teams trending in opposite directions.

The Knicks are 8-2 in their last 10 games, and they've posted a .500 road record ahead of Tuesday's "away game" against their local rivals. Meanwhile, the Nets have lost eight of their last 10 to slide to 11th in the Eastern Conference, and they're one of six teams in the East with a home record of .500 or worse.

Will the Knicks continue their ascension to the top of the East, or will the Nets halt their momentum in what may prove to be essentially a neutral-court showdown?

To go along with our Lakers vs. Clippers player props, here are our best Knicks vs. Nets NBA player props and NBA picks (odds via our best NBA betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Knicks vs. Nets props

Jalen Brunson Under 7.5 assists (+100 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This four-star pick serves as my best bet for this game, as it's enticing for several reasons.

First, we're getting great odds through DraftKings. It's the only one of our best sports betting apps that's offering better than minus money to back the Under on Jalen Brunson's assists prop. Most are already at -120 or -125.

The second piece of data that supports this bet is the projection. NumberFire projects Brunson to finish with 6.9 assists on Tuesday. When we run that projection against DraftKings' +100 odds on the Under, we're getting roughly 23% positive expected value on this bet.

Finally, Pinnacle, which features one of the most respected trading teams in the sports betting industry, opened with Under 7.5 assists priced at -105. It's since been bet to -124, showing us there's sharp money backing our side.

Brunson has been red-hot recently, but we're riding with the data and smashing the Under at these even-money odds.

Nic Claxton Under 13.5 points (-120 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

These odds - or very similar ones - are available at a few of our best sports betting sites, with FanDuel and BetRivers pricing the Under at -122. Therefore, you can play Nic Claxton's Under 13.5 points at any of those three options.

NumberFire projects Claxton to finish with just 12.1 points on Tuesday, nearly a full bucket away from what he'd need to clear this total. When we run that projection against Caesars' -120 odds on Under 13.5, we're getting better than 17% +EV on this bet.

Similarly, the aforementioned numbers at FanDuel and BetRivers provide us with just better than 16% +EV. 

In comparison, Pinnacle opened with the Under at -127, which is already shorter than this price we're getting. Since then, it's been smashed to -145.

Play this one quickly, because this price won't last long.

OG Anunoby Over 21.5 points + rebounds + assists (-105 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐

My only three-star pick of the day comes via OG Anunoby's PRA prop, and we're targeting the Over for the recently acquired Knick. 

On Tuesday, Anunoby is projected to finish with 23.4 points + rebounds + assists against the Nets. Based on that projection, we're getting a little better than 11% +EV for this bet.

This number at bet365 is also widely available through our other best sportsbooks, as DraftKings and BetMGM are both featuring the Over priced at -105, while Caesars isn't far off at -106.

Pinnacle's price isn't especially shorter at -115, but I do like that we've seen it move more than 10 points since opening at -103. That tells us there's been some sharp action on the Over.
