The New York Knicks (37-22), sitting third in the Eastern Conference, travel to Fiserv Forum to face the Milwaukee Bucks (26-31) on Friday, February 27, tipping off at 8:00 PM ET, with Giannis Antetokounmpo listed as day-to-day with a left calf injury and Taurean Prince confirmed out with a neck issue, this matchup puts a Knicks squad that has covered just once in their last six games and lost 94-109 to Cleveland in their most recent outing against a Milwaukee team that has won eight of their last ten and is riding genuine momentum through the Porter Jr. and Rollins backcourt, as New York arrives as a 7.5 to 8-point road favorite trying to grab a seeding edge while the Bucks fight for a play-in spot at home in what shapes up as one of the trickier spreads on the Friday slate.

Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks Picks and Prediction: Fade the Blowout Buzz at +11.5

Washington Wizards, sitting 13th in the Eastern Conference at 16-41, travel to face the 9th-placed Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena on Thursday, February 26, tipping off at 7:30 PM ET. With the Wizards returning to the same building where they got blown out 119-98 just 48 hours earlier, and still without Trae Young (knee MCL/quad), Anthony Davis (hand), and Alex Sarr (hamstring), this matchup pits a skeleton-crew Washington squad against a Hawks team riding a fresh Jonathan Kuminga debut buzz at home, as Atlanta fights to hold its Play-In spot with Miami closing in and the Eastern Conference postseason picture tightening in the final stretch of the 2025-26 campaign.
