"With less than 48 hours until the NBA trade deadline, rumors continue to swirl around the Knicks but on the floor Tuesday night, New York looked very much like a team comfortable with its current roster. Despite reports from ESPN's Brian Windhorst that the Knicks are not aggressively pursuing Giannis Antetokounmpo, they delivered in a 132-101 win over the Wizards."
"Mikal Bridges finished with 23 points, four rebounds, and five assists, shooting 8-for-10 from the field and knocking down three 3-pointers. As a team, New York shot 47-for-90 from the field (52%) and outrebounded the Wizards 48-40. Over the last 10 games, the Knicks have dominated on both ends of the court. Offensively, they are averaging 113 points per game while shooting 47% as a team, while allowing just 93 points per game."
"The Wizards entered the game coming off a 116-112 win over the Kings, but sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference at 13-35. Washington has gone 3-7 over its last 10 games, though the franchise has a bright future featuring Alexandre Sarr, along with former All-Star Trae Young, who was acquired via trade several weeks ago. The Knicks opened the calendar year with a worrying 2-9 stretch before locking in and ripping off a seven-game winning streak, their longest of the season."
