Overview
- The win pushed New York’s streak to six games and lifted the team back into the Eastern Conference’s No. 2 seed.
- OG Anunoby scored 25 points, Landry Shamet added 23 with six three-pointers, and Josh Hart finished with 20 in a balanced attack.
- New York held Los Angeles to 100 points, making it five of the last six opponents kept to 100 or fewer, with none during the streak reaching 110.
- Jalen Brunson shot 4-for-15 for 12 points but registered 13 assists, seven rebounds and just one turnover as the primary organizer.
- Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 11 points, 13 rebounds and three steals, was named an All-Star alongside starter Brunson as LeBron James was also selected, and the Knicks now face back-to-backs against Washington and Denver before a trade deadline where little movement is expected.
