“We were protecting the paint,” said Josh Hart after the game about the defensive changes the Knicks made in the third quarter.

The Knicks defeated the Wizards, 119-102.

But the Knicks star decided to do it in style, carving up the Wizards’ defense in the process.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have opened the 2025–26 season with a 4–3 record. After making back-to-back trips to the Western Conference Finals, shooting guard Anthony Edwards is looking to take Minnesota over the hump and make his first appearance on basketball’s biggest stage.

Florida basketball will begin the defense of its national title with a top 25 clash.

Brown averages 26.8 points, 4.4 boards and 4.3 assists per contest, making 52.3% of shots from the field and 38.0% from downtown with 2.4 made 3-pointers per game.

"There have been a lot more 3s in New York games this season. The Knicks themselves have seen the biggest jump in 3-point rate by a wide margin, from 38.2% (28th) last season to 48.5% (fourth) this season. They were 20-for-42 (48%) from deep in their win over the Bulls on Sunday, with six Knicks making at least two 3s," Schuhmann wrote.
