Ahead of Sunday's Warriors-Knicks matchup on NBC's Sunday Night Basketball, Zach Thompson highlights his best player prop bets for the game on DraftKings Sportsbook. The Knicks are heavy 14.5-point home favorites, and Thompson spotlights props for Karl-Anthony Towns, Jordan Podziemski, and Payton Pritchard, as well as a rebounding prop for Jalen Brunson.

Why it matters

With the Knicks fighting for playoff positioning in the East and the injury-riddled Warriors trying to stay in the Play-In race, this nationally televised matchup provides an opportunity for bettors to capitalize on prop bets featuring key players from both teams.

The details

Thompson's top prop bets include Karl-Anthony Towns over 20.5 points, Jordan Podziemski over 1.5 three-pointers made, Payton Pritchard over 9.5 points, and Jalen Brunson over 3.5 rebounds. Towns has been on a scoring tear lately and should continue that against the shorthanded Warriors, while Podziemski and Pritchard will need to step up with so many Golden State players out. Brunson has been crashing the boards well and should be able to clear 4 rebounds at home.
