The New York Knicks host the New Orleans Pelicans at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night. They are looking to extend their season-best winning streak. While New York is fighting for the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference, the Pelicans are aiming to find consistency on the road.
New York enters the contest with a 47–25 record and a six-game winning streak. The Knicks have been dominant at home, recently crushing the Wizards 145–113. With Jalen Brunson leading the offense at an All-NBA level, New York sits just behind the Celtics in the standings.
The Pelicans arrive at 25–47, currently 11th in the Western Conference. Despite their record, New Orleans has fought well lately, winning six of their last 10 games. However, they are coming off a tough home loss to the Cavaliers that snapped a long home winning streak. Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III lead the way for the Pelicans.

Head to Head
The New York Knicks lead the 2025–26 season series 1–0 after a hard-fought 130–125 victory in New Orleans back on December 29. Historically, the all-time regular-season series is dead even at 24–24.
Prediction
While the Pelicans have shown glimpses of high-level play, the Knicks are currently the hottest team in the East. New York’s defense, and Karl-Anthony Towns, should prove too much for a New Orleans team that has struggled with turnovers on the road. Expect Jalen Brunson to control the tempo early, leading the Knicks to a comfortable double-digit victory to extend their streak to seven.
Score Prediction: Knicks 122 – Pelicans 109
