19-23!
The Knicks were 19-23 from the foul line in Thursday night's win over the Boston Celtics. Good for 83%, this was uncharacteristic as they haven’t been good from the line to start the new year. In January, they shot 74.9% as a team, the fifth-worst in the NBA. This metric sounds even worse when you find out they are taking the ninth most free throws per game this month.
It’s been pretty brutal this month as they’ve missed six or more free throws in nine of the 13 games so far.
