What to Know
The Knicks will be playing the full four quarters on Wednesday, but they're expected to have things wrapped up well before that. They will head out on the road to square off against the Toronto Raptors at 7:30 p.m. ET at Scotiabank Arena. The Knicks' defense has only allowed 107.6 points per game this season, so the Raptors' offense will have their work cut out for them.
Last Monday, everything went the Knicks' way against the Pistons as the Knicks made off with a 124-99 win. New York pushed the score to 95-66 by the end of the third, a deficit Detroit cut but never quite recovered from.
Among those leading the charge was Donte DiVincenzo, who went 11 for 20 from beyond the arc en route to 40 points and 2 assists. The team also got some help courtesy of Jalen Brunson, who scored 28 points along with six assists.
Meanwhile, the Raptors' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Monday after their 11th straight loss. They took a 96-88 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Nets. The result shouldn't come as a shock considering that's the fewest points Toronto has scored all season.
