The New York Knicks started off the year with a bang, securing a 106-112 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves in their first game of 2024. All eyes were on OG Anunoby, who made an impressive debut, showcasing his skills and contributing 17 points, 6 rebounds, and stellar defense. This performance justified the Knicks’ management’s decision to acquire him from Toronto in exchange for RJ Barrett and Emmanuel Quickley.
Julius Randle was also a standout player, scoring 39 points and making some clutch baskets to prevent a comeback from the Timberwolves. Jaylen Brunson also had a career-high 14 assists, despite a 5-for-23 night from the field.
The Timberwolves started strong, led by Anthony Edwards’ 35 points, and held an 11-point lead in the first quarter. However, the Knicks rallied in the second quarter, thanks to Randle’s 21 points, and maintained their momentum throughout the game.
After a back-and-forth battle in the final minutes, the Knicks emerged victorious, improving to a 15-18 record while the Timberwolves dropped to 8-24.
The win was celebrated by the New York Knicks on Twitter, as they expressed their excitement for starting 2024 with a “DUB.” With this victory, the Knicks have set a positive tone for the rest of the season and have shown that they are a force to be reckoned with in the NBA.
