Knicks Take Care of Business in Charlotte

Mitchell Robinson is averaging more offensive rebounds boards per possession and per-36 minutes than ten NBA teams!

Final Score: Knicks 122 - Hornets 108
Record: 8-5 

Good NBA teams win winnable games, and that's what the Knicks did this weekend - and have done this season.

After whipping a woeful Wizards squad Friday night in DC, New York flew to Charlotte and easily handled an inferior Hornets club. The Knicks have won six of their last seven games, with all six wins coming against teams at or below .500. Their one loss was to the Celtics. Still, considering how demanding the early-season schedule was for New York, they surely won't complain about the difficulty level of any of these much-needed wins.

Jalen Brunson remained red-hot and led the way for 'Bockers in Charlotte, tallying 32 points, seven assists, and four rebounds, shooting 12-of-21 from the floor, 4-of-8 from downtown and 4-of-4 from the charity stripe. However, it was the player who started alongside Brunson in the backcourt (and stood next to Brunson as a groomsman on his wedding day) that generated the most conversation among Knicks fans Saturday night.
