New York Knicks shooting guard Josh Hart had an interesting answer to a question about Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young.
Brunson scored 38 points and took control in overtime, while Hart recorded a triple-double and Bridges scored 23 points in the city where they became college stars.
Knicks starters Josh Hart, Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges react to the team's win over the Nets, including setting egos aside to win.
You could say Young ran out of luck Monday in the Knicks' 119-110 victory over the Hawks at Madison Square Garden. But it’s more accurate to say that he ran into Mikal Bridges and a defense that was determined to keep the Atlanta guard from playing the villain role he so frequently has played at the Garden.
Mikal Bridges didn’t get a tribute video in his return to Barclays Center on Tuesday, but he did get a “Welcome back” graphic that was displayed on the jumbotron when the Knicks‘ starters were introduced.
In a span of 50 seconds late in regulation of the New York Knicks’ overtime victory against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, Josh Hart forced a jump ball, recorded a steal, dunked and passed a man open for a 3.
For a fleeting moment considered the face of the Nets, Mikal Bridges is hoping for “good energy” as he returns to the Barclays Center on Tuesday for the first time since being traded across the Manhattan Bridge.
Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau expressed uncertainty on Sunday about a January return for injured center Mitchell Robinson, raising the likelihood of a February debut but not completely ruling
The Knicks were sluggish, the offense inexplicably disappeared for most of the fourth quarter and they were one Brooklyn shot away from their worst loss of the season.
After Brooklyn's Keon Johnson hit two free throws, Brunson sank a jumper from near the foul line to make it 95-92 with 1:25 left. Following a dunk by New York's OG Anunoby, D'Angelo Russell hit a 3-pointer to bring Brooklyn within 97-95 with 52 seconds left.
Mikal Bridges’ transition to the New York Knicks has certainly come with its challenges, but he’s starting to find his rhythm after a period of adjustment.
