But Towns’ case may be worsening by the day. As the season went on, Towns looked like a lock for an All-NBA team. At one point, he had a case to be on the All-NBA First Team alongside the likes of Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Jayson Tatum.

Karl-Anthony Towns had 26 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists for his first triple-double in more than three years, helping the New York Knicks defeat the Dallas Mavericks 128-113 on Tuesday night.

Karl-Anthony Towns and the Knicks seem content to ignore the show and Draymond Green, even after Green's out-of-line comments on his podcast.

After failing to clinch a spot for themselves, the Atlanta Hawks' loss to the Heat on Thursday helped the Knicks clinch a spot in the 2024-25 NBA Playoffs.

The Bulls are 14-22 in home games. Chicago is sixth in the league averaging 117.3 points and is shooting 46.7% from the field. The Mavericks are 16-22 in road games.

While the Knicks did not play on Thursday, they did have something at stake that had to do with the matchup between the Atlanta Hawks and the Miami Heat. Entering Thursday’s contest, the Knicks needed the Heat to defeat the Hawks in order to clinch a playoff spot and that is exactly what happened as Miami defeated Atlanta 122-112.

Tim Hardaway Jr. had a season-high 32 points and the host Detroit Pistons clinched their first winning season in nine years by defeating the Eastern Conference-leading Cleveland Cavaliers 133-122 on Friday night.

Fresh off a memorable buzzer-beating win, Josh Giddey and the Chicago Bulls host the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night with both teams looking to improve their playoff positions.

The Knicks have more than enough after all. Down Jalen Brunson (ankle), Miles McBride (groin) and Cameron Payne (ankle), the Knicks were down to their fourth- and fifth-string point guards for Friday night’s matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks.
