The Bulls play in a lot of close games. They also have a limited depth chart, which means DeMar DeRozan plays a ton. Over their last 19 games, he has averaged 26.3 points and 38 minutes. In those 19 games, he scored at least 25 points 13 times. That included him scoring at least 27 points in each of the last six games. The Knicks are a great defensive team, but I still like this over for DeRozan.

Behold the "new" Knicks, though in truth it's pretty much the same roster since late January when Julius Randle and OG Anunoby went down at nearly the same time. After a couple of months, Randle (shoulder) has finally been ruled out for the remainder of the season; Anunoby (elbow) still could return at some time before the playoffs. Though a long stretch of "under" results that commenced when Anunoby came over from Toronto has done an about-face as the Knicks, powered by Jalen Brunson, are now "over" six straight and eight of nine. Meanwhile, though a few "unders" lately with "total" hurdles in the 220s,the Bulls are also not far removed from a six-game "over" run. Play Knicks-Bulls "Over"
