A win today over the Washington Wizards (34-43) would clinch a playoff spot for the New York Knicks (45-33).
Get your confetti ready.
The Knicks lead the season series 2-1, and last beat Washington in February, 115-109. Wes Unseld Jr.’s squad has lost seven of their last ten games, including a Friday night choke-job against the Orlando Magic, 116-109.
All season, the Zards have been an enigma, equally capable of winning an impossible game or losing a gimme. This evening, however, they shouldn’t pose too much opposition. According to the injury report, DC’s finest will be without the services of Bradley Beal (knee), Kristaps Porziu0146u0123is (illness), and Kyle Kuzma (ankle).
