The recent acquisition of OG Anunoby by the New York Knicks has proven to be a game-changer for the team, as highlighted by their impressive 11-2 record since the trade. Fred Katz noted the transformative impact, describing the Knicks as a team on the rise after their victory against the reigning champion Denver Nuggets. Jalen Brunson’s addition last season, along with contributions from Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Hart, has provided the team with a significant boost.
Anunoby, in particular, has quickly made a name for himself in New York, averaging 15.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.8 steals in his first 13 games with the Knicks. In their recent win against the Nuggets, he showcased his prowess with 26 points and six steals. The team’s offense has strengthened, and their defense has notably improved since Anunoby’s arrival.
Currently holding a 28-17 record, the Knicks sit as the fourth team in the Eastern Conference. Fans are optimistic about the team’s performance, wondering if they can sustain this momentum in the coming months. With upcoming games against formidable opponents like the Miami Heat, Charlotte Hornets, Utah Jazz, Indiana Pacers, and Los Angeles Lakers, the Knicks are generating considerable hype, leaving fans hopeful that this is the best version of the team in years. The question remains whether they can maintain this level of play in the weeks and months ahead.
