There used to be a time where there was minimal Knicks representation on All-Star weekend. Up until the recent revival in 2021, the Knicks were basically absent from all of All-Star weekend after Carmelo Anthony departed, with only occasional youngsters playing on Friday and the gimmicky dunk contest.
However, since 2021, the Knicks have reversed course. On Sunday, a Knick will participate in the All-Star game for the fourth time in five years, and two will participate for the first time in over a decade.
But on Saturday night? Once again, a Knick is inbound, with Jalen Brunson participating in the three-point contest.
