The New York Knicks secured a resounding victory against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday, extending their winning streak to nine games.
The New York Knicks secured a convincing victory against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night, opening the new year on a winning streak. Despite the absence of key players Jalen Brunson and Miles McBride, the Knicks triumphed 119-103 at Madison Square Garden. This win marked the Knicks' ninth consecutive victory and avenged their previous loss to the Jazz in November.
Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Hart delivered exceptional performances, with Towns scoring 31 points and grabbing 21 rebounds, while Hart achieved a triple-double (15 points, 14 rebounds, 12 assists) for the second game in a row. This historic feat makes them the first Knicks duo to achieve a 30-20 game and a double-double since Walt 'Clyde' Frazier and Willis Reed. Brunson was ruled out before the game began, and McBride, initially scheduled to start, suffered hamstring issues during warm-ups, leading to Cameron Payne stepping in as a starter. Payne contributed nine assists and three steals in his first start for the Knicks. The Knicks will now embark on a weekend back-to-back road trip, facing the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday night
