The winner of the NBA Cup will be decided Tuesday when the Spurs and Knicks battle at 8:30p.m. ET on Prime Video. The game will be played at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV.

The Knicks will have their full complement of starters for this matchup, but reserves G Miles McBride (ankle) and G Landry Shamet (shoulder) are on the shelf. The Spurs have a mostly clean injury report now that F/C Victor Wembanyama is back.

Let’s focus on Wembanyama and discuss some of his stats and projections for Knicks vs. Spurs in the NBA Cup, plus a PrizePicks NBA pick for the man they call Wemby.
