The New York Knicks hosted the Utah Jazz on Sunday, November 6 in the third home game of the 2016-17 NBA regular season. It was a tough test for New York, which continued its stretch of outings against postseason-caliber opponents.
With Hayward back in the lineup and the Jazz already off to a strong start to the season, a number of Knicks players stepped up in hopes of providing victory.
New York lost to the Utah Jazz by a score of 114-109. It was a disappointing showing by New York, which led by double-digits and even held a slight lead entering the fourth quarter before suffering a collapse.
