The Knicks picked up their second consecutive win, defeating the Phoenix Suns 112-98 on Sunday night at Madison Square Garden.
Here are some takeaways...
- The Knicks received a big boost to their rotation in this one, as both Jalen Brunson and Miles McBride returned from injury. Brunson missed a total of 15 games with a right ankle sprain while McBride was sidelined the last eight contests with a lingering groin issue.
Brunson made a bucket and dished three assists as he played eight minutes in the opening quarter. McBride provided an immediate spark off the bench, knocking down a pair of threes to help the Knicks carry a slim early advantage, despite committing seven turnovers as a team.
