Game 66: March 25, 2025

Dallas Mavericks at New York Knicks

Final Score: NYK 128 – DAL 113

Tuesday night’s win over the Dallas Mavericks saw the New York Knicks secure their second straight win dominantly. Karl-Anthony Towns led the charge with a triple-double performance, recording 26 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists. It was also Town’s first triple-double performance in three years. However, he wasn’t the only Knick to record a triple-double for the evening. Josh Hart also logged a triple-double performance, finishing with 16 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists. It was Hart’s ninth triple-double of the season. He and Towns became the first teammates in Knicks history to accomplish that feat in the same game. OG Anunoby led the way with 35 points, while Naji Marshall had a career-high 38 points for the Mavericks in a losing effort. With this win, New York has improved their record to 45-26, while Dallas falls to 35-38 for the season.

 

Game 67: March 26, 2025

Los Angeles Clippers at New York Knicks 

Final Score: LAC 126 – NYK 113

Wednesday night’s loss to the Los Angeles Clippers was a tough one to swallow, especially since a win would have clinched a playoff spot for the Knicks. New York had failed to take advantage of this opportunity.  This loss was due to Los Angeles dominating in the third quarter. They managed to outscore New York 40-29, fueled by James Harden’s 11 consecutive points during a 16-13 run. They wouldn’t be dominating if it weren’t for closing the gap by halftime. The only positive highlight for the evening was Karl-Anthony Towns. He finished with 34 points on 11-for-20 shooting (4-for-7 from three) with 13 rebounds, four assists, and two steals. With this win, Los Angeles has improved their record to 41-31, while New York falls to 45-27 for the season.

 

Game 68: March 28, 2025

New York Knicks at Milwaukee Bucks 

Final Score: NYK 116 – MIL 107

For the first time in 12 years, the Knicks have completed a season sweep of the Milwaukee Bucks. OG Anunoby is leading the way for New York in this victory. He led the team with 31 points, including 20 points in the fourth quarter. However, he wasn’t the only one who had contributed to this win for the team. Mikal Bridges also had a great game himself. He scored 26 points, which came with 5 rebounds and 3 assists. Milwaukee’s only positive highlight of the evening was their star Giannis Antetokounmpo. In a losing effort, he led the team with 30 points, along with nine rebounds and seven assists. With this win, New York has improved their record to 46-27, while Milwaukee falls to 40-33 for the season.

 

Game 69: March 30, 2025

Portland Trail Blazers vs New York Knicks

Final Score: NYK 110 – POR 93

After dominating Milwaukee two nights ago, the Knicks take care of business tonight at the Garden. Both OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges were the storylines for New York tonight in their victory. They each managed to score 28 points and have dominated the second half as part of their late rally. Where would these two be in the lineup? Of course, this team misses their star player, Jalen Brunson, but the Knicks are an average team without these two. This win also puts the Knicks closer to locking up the number three seed in the Eastern Conference, something they still haven’t done. They have also improved to a 7-5 record without Brunson.
