Best Karl-Anthony Towns Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
It should be an exciting game between the Pistons and the Knicks on Friday night. The Knicks are 6.5-point favorites against the Pistons with an o/u of 216 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The latest lines for Karl-Anthony Towns against the Pistons on DraftKings Sportsbook are currently o/u 20.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.5 3-pointers.
Karl-Anthony Towns had his Knicks breakout game against the Heat on Wednesday night. He scored 44 points and added 13 rebounds in New York’s win over Miami. That is how Knicks fans have been hoping this team could play with their new center. Towns was able to stretch the floor, going 4/5 from three, and clear out space inside to set up Jalen Brunson and the perimeter shooters.
Towns proved why he is one of the hardest players in the NBA to guard because of the way he can score from anywhere on the floor. Towns has a true shooting percentage of .723, the 24th-best mark in the league this season, and his PER of 28.72 is the fifth-best mark in the league. Towns has been incredibly efficient early on in his Knicks career and should keep putting up good numbers in this spot.
The Pistons are 18th in the NBA in team defensive rating and don’t have the guys to slow down the Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns two-man game. Towns should be able to score in this game by popping for threes and getting to the free-throw line, just like he did against Miami. That is why I am betting on Towns to go over his points prop of 20.5 against Detroit.
Best Bet: Karl-Anthony Towns o20.5 points
