Nets vs Knicks Prediction, Projected Score & Pick
Brooklyn Nets at New York Knicks · Mon, Nov 2, 2026
HoopVantage's Nov 2, 2026 prediction: New York Knicks over the Nets by 13.7 points, a 87% win probability, with a projected final of Nets 106, Knicks 120 (total 226.0).
The model projects New York Knicks to win by 13.7 points (87% win probability), projected score NYK 120, BKN 106, total 226.0 (80% range 202–250). The largest driver is player on-court impact (4.0 points toward NYK).
Matchup
Brooklyn Nets rank 28 of 30 in the HoopVantage power rating (−5.3 points against an average opponent, about 27 projected wins in 2026-27); New York Knicks rank 3 (+4.5, about 51 wins). On a neutral floor that gap is worth 9.8 points to New York Knicks; home court, rest, travel and the projected rotations move it to the 13.7-point margin above. A 87% win probability means New York Knicks should win about 9 of 10 games like this one, so the other side winning is a normal outcome, not an upset of the model.
