After the Knicks strung together eight straight wins, they’ve now dealt with three consecutive losses. The most recent one was a 119-112 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Christmas Day at Madison Square Garden. A former notable Knick was in attendance for the action in Carmelo Anthony, too.
The 19-year veteran suited up for the Los Angeles Lakers last season. He was productive in a bench role, averaging 13.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per night. Even if he catches on elsewhere at some point this year — which Anthony is open to — New York will always have a soft spot in his heart.
