This duel between Knicks and Kings promised to be explosive, but the one who exploded is mainly Og Anunoby, author of 33 points. In its wake, New York won 143-120.
For their first outing as an ALL-STAR, the Duo Jalen Brunson-Karl-Anthony had nothing to prove. The opportunity to let the friends shine in this confrontation against the Kings.
The one who will perfectly take this opportunity is Og Anunoby.
You should not miss the kick -off of this match because, from the first minutes, it goes from one basket to another and the points are linked at high speed.
You will understand, we are not faced with a match where the defenses will shine, but will it prevent us from enjoying ourselves? Certainly not.
New York therefore takes place on the first minutes behind an OG Anunoby who misses nothing, but in the second quarter, he will find a major opponent: Malik Monk. The pyromaniac of the Kings honors his reputation and bears Sacramento.

Thanks to him, the Kings pick up the score and are only five points behind half-time.
Except that the problem of the pyromaniacs is that there is a time when they stop caught fire and that is what will happen on the return from the locker room. Malik Monk is much less noticed and the Knicks take advantage of it.
Og Anunoby continues his show, but he is joined by Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart who signs a new triple-double at 20 points, 18 rebounds and 11 assists.
