After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Suns 109-97. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
