Killian Hayes Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 4.5 (+105/-135).
Key Factors
Favors Over
Killian Hayes has averaged a mere 2.0 personal fouls per game this year, significantly lower than his 2.9 fouls per game last year.
The 4th-most up-tempo pace team in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Detroit Pistons.
The Detroit Pistons check in as the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create additional chances for scoring and assists).
The Knicks have allowed the 3rd-least offensive boards per game (9.0) in the NBA to opposing clubs this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further opportunities for scoring and assists).
Favors Under
Killian Hayes has tallied just 4.4 assists per game this season, quite a bit less than his 6.2 assists per game last season.
The Detroit Pistons are expected to suffer a reduction in possessions in this contest from facing the slowest pace-of-play home offense in the league this year (the New York Knicks).
Killian Hayes will likely see a decline in output for all stats in light of playing away from hom in this matchup.
