Top Knicks vs. Timberwolves prop pick:

After 10,000 simulations, SportsLine's model is projecting that Mikal Bridges goes Over 14.5 points, a prop that returns -128 (risk $128 to return $100). Bridges has cleared his points total in seven of his past 10 games when the Knicks were favored and playing a team with a winning record, which is the spot they are in on Wednesday.

His points prop line is down a bit after he's scored just 10 points in each of his past two games. Zooming out a bit, however, he's averaging 16.4 points per game this season, and he averaged 19 points per game during the first five games of the season.

Minnesota ranks 20th in the NBA in defensive efficiency, and the model is projecting that Bridges scores 17.1 points in the simulations, making it one of the highest-rated points prop picks for this matchup. See which team to back against the spread at SportsLine, and bet that prop here:
