On Wednesday morning, New York Knicks take on Portland Trail Blazers at Madison Square Garden.
The Knicks are in splendid form and will be keen to extend their four-match winning streak following last match's victory over Wizards with a score of 121:105. Julius Randle emerged as the team leader scoring 39 points (which became his second record performance this season), grabbing 7 rebounds and making 5 assists, Jalen Brunson added 33 points and 8 assists, while Donte DiVincenzo scored 10 points. On the whole, Knicks realised 49% of game throws and 14 out of 36 from the three-point line.
On average, New York Knicks scores 115.8 points with a 46.7% success rate and concede 112.4 points with a 47.6% success rate. Jalen Brunson scores an average of 26 points and makes 3.9 rebounds, while Julius Randle accommodates 24.3 points and makes 9.3 rebounds.
The Blazers have recently encountered defeat, having lost 6 out of the last 9 matches; however, in the recent match, they secured a victory over Brooklyn Nets in overtime with a score of 134:127. Anfernee Simons had a remarkable game scoring 38 points and 11 assists realising 13 out of 25 throws, Jerami Grant added 27 points; Shaderon Sharp scored 21 points, while Duop Reath scored 15 points, 13 rebounds, and 3 blocks. The Trail Blazers realised 47% of game throws and 20 out of 38 from the three-point line.
The Blazers are still experiencing player shortages: Deandre Ayton and Matisse Thybulle continue to be absent, while Knicks return to the pitch in the same line-up. The Knicks are in fine form; they are fully fit and, I believe, they won't have any particular difficulties in this home game.
