As the Knicks gear up to face the Pacers at Madison Square Garden, all eyes should be on Jalen Brunson to dish out more than 6.5 assists. Brunson has been in rhythm at home, averaging a solid 7.8 assists in his last five games at the Garden. Against Indiana, he's historically found success, with his home average against them sitting comfortably at 7 assists. With an impressive hit rate of 14 out of the last 20 games at home, the odds are certainly in favor of him surpassing this mark. Furthermore, Brunson's knack for playmaking has him trending upwards, especially with his recent overall average of 5.8 assists. Given that he's been connecting well with teammates and the Pacers' defense has shown vulnerabilities, expect Brunson to orchestrate the offense effectively. This matchup screams value for the Over 6.5 assists bet.
