This Knicks pain is exactly what RJ Barrett needs
PHILADELPHIA — Growin’ up. Growing pains.
RJ Barrett’s 10-game trip into the stratosphere of high-end NBA competition started Wednesday night with a terrific high, a 17-point lead over the Sixers at the Wells Fargo Center. It was Barrett’s follow slam of a missed shot that put the Knicks up 77-60 with 4:15 remaining in the third quarter.
The Knicks and Barrett were flying, on their way to their best win of the year.
Those turned out to be his final points and his final rebound of the night as it all disappeared for the Knicks in a stunning 109-104 loss to the Sixers.
