The New York Knicks overcame the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday evening by a score of 112-109. After losing three consecutive games, it was clear that the Knicks had a newfound sense of urgency, dragging their record back to .500 on the season. However, it was several individual performances and a dominant outing from RJ Barrett who willed them to victory.
The third-year guard posted 32 points on the evening, connecting on 11-of-20 shots from the field and 7-of-8 from three point range. Barrett has struggled as of late, shooting just 29% from three-point range in the month of November and 36% from the field.
