The New York Knicks will continue their fight for positioning in the NBA Playoffs as they prepare to face the #2 seed Phoenix Suns on Friday night. New York is in the midst of a difficult West Coast road trip that didn’t get off to the hottest start after an embarrassing loss to the Denver Nuggets earlier in the week.

After a red hot month of April that saw the team go 11-4, they’ve been able to remain seated as the 4th seed for over a week.
