On Wednesday night, the streaking New York Knicks (17-13) will welcome the Golden State Warriors (15-16) to the World’s Most Famous Arena.
Over the past few weeks, the Knicks have changed from a frustratingly mediocre into one that’s thrilling to watch, as evidenced by Sunday’s scratch-and-claw victory in Indiana. They currently lead the Eastern Conference with 13.1 offensive rebounds per game, thanks to significant efforts from Mitchell Robinson, who is averaging 4.2 O-Boards per outing.
The Knicks have a 7-7 record at home, while the Warriors are 3-14 on the road and will be without future Hall of Famer Stephen Curry (shoulder).
