The New York Knicks notched their season-high nine-game winning streak with air-tight continuity from starters to their bench.
That beautiful flow was disturbed when starting point guard Jalen Brunson went out with a foot injury that led to a three-game tailspin.
They somehow regained that fluidity in a much-needed victory against the Los Angeles Lakers with big-time performances from their bench mob.
“The bench was phenomenal that you couldn’t ask for anymore,” New York coach Tom Thibodeau said after they snapped their losing streak with a 112-108 win over the Lakers on Sunday.
