Today’s 2024 NBA Summer League Best Bets: Knicks vs. Hawks

Here are our top picks for today’s 2024 NBA Summer League action.

Knicks vs. Hawks

The best reason to watch the Knicks vs. Hawks game would be to see the No. 1 draft pick, Zaccharie Risacher, play. But a quad contusion kept him out Wednesday vs. the Lakers; he did not play in Friday’s game vs. the Bulls and will probably not suit up for this game. While it would be nice to win one, at this point, the Hawks may be ready to go home. The offense was on fire in Friday’s loss to the Bulls, scoring 99 points. However, the defense was non-existent, leading to a 103-99 loss. New York lost its first two summer league games but have stepped up their game enough over the last two to record a pair of one-point wins. Second-round pick Tyler Kolek has been turning in some good performances. In Friday’s win over the Pistons, Dmytro Skapintsev led the way with 17 points, ten rebounds, and three blocks in just 21 minutes. Atlanta has already thrown in the towel; but while the Knicks will win, take the OVER in what will almost certainly be a high scoring game.

Pick: OVER 177.5 (-110)
