The New York Knicks were up late on the west coast Monday night — playing the second of a three-game road trip in the Pacific Time Zone. It started with a blowout via the Los Angeles Clippers and, while this game against the Sacramento Kings was closer, it still came with issues and resulted in a loss, 115-108.
Allonzo Trier led a one-man show for the Knicks, scoring 29 points off the bench, including 3-of-4 from three-point range — a boost and improvement from his previous showings. Dennis Smith Jr. added his own 18 points but in a quieter 28 minutes.
