After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Suns 88-87. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
