RJ Barrett is heating up and so are the New York Knicks with him.
In case you missed it, the Knickerbockers are 7-3 in their last ten games and just dominated the Dallas Mavericks at home, 108-85. Barrett’s 32 points led the way, continuing his red-hot January.
Since the calendar turned to 2022, Barrett is averaging 24.3 points and shooting 47.7% from the field, plus an incredible 50% from three.
And yet, what is the main storyline out of Knicks camp? The ongoing saga starring Julius Randle. Forget RJ Barrett having quite a dominant run in his own quietly unique way.
