Last Friday, the Knicks lost to the Timberwolves at home by a decisive 116-99 margin.
Even though they lost, the Knicks smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 15 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they’ve now pulled down at least ten offensive rebounds in nine consecutive contests.
Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but the Hawks ultimately got the result they hoped for on Saturday. They snuck past the Celtics with a 119-115 win. Atlanta’s victory was a heroic effort that saw the team overcome a 9.5 point disadvantage in the spread.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead the Hawks to victory, but perhaps none more so than Trae Young, who dropped a double-double on 28 points and 11 assists. Onyeka Okongwu was another key player, dropping a double-double on 19 points and 13 rebounds.

Monday’s matchup is shaping up to be a scrappy game: The Knicks haven’t given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.2 turnovers per game (they’re ranked third in turnovers per game overall). It’s a different story for the Hawks, though, as they’ve been averaging 15. Given the Knicks’ sizable advantage in that area, the Hawks will need to find a way to close that gap.
