New York Knicks vs Toronto Raptors Prediction: Will the home team be able to extend their winning streak?

New York is on an eight-game winning streak and will take face at Madison Square Garden. Will the home team be able to extend their winning streak?

For the Knicks, the game against Toronto is the second part of the back-to-back. In the first game, the New Yorkers beat Golden State at home, 132:94, who were weakened by Steph Curry's absence. They showed once again great team play on both ends of the floor. Six players scored 10+ points. The top scorers were Immanuel Quickley, with 22 points, and Jalen Brunson, with 21. New York picked up their eighth consecutive win and now sits in sixth place in the Eastern Conference standings with an 18-13 balance.

The Raptors are on a losing streak, as the team has lost six straight games. In the last match, the Toronto team was close to success. During the road game, the Canadians took a 14-point lead over Philadelphia in the second half but still lost in overtime - 101:104 (99:99). Toronto is now 13-18 overall and only 10th in the East.

Toronto's previous game against Philadelphia showed that with OJ Anunoby back on the court, the team is ready to improve, including on defense. New York has a back-to-back, so the Raptors seem to have a great chance to break their lousy streak here. Nick Nurse has a great team and is out of place right now. And the Knicks have also won eight straight and could lose their focus.
