The Knicks will play their season’s 20th game on Black Friday vs. New Orleans, and their point-guard situation still stands as a darkened quandary.
The Knicks’ point guard merry-go-round whirls on, and Trey Burke’s spectacular four-game tour de force has only confounded the issue.
In successive games off the bench, Burke, the opening night starter, has amassed games of 24, 31, 19 and a heroic 29 points Wednesday, when he ruined the Celtics’ Thanksgiving in the holiday’s birthplace.
Burke’s two final-minute daggers destroyed the Celtics comeback and the Knicks’ six-game losing streak. He’s shot 40 of 68 during the four-game surge.
