Knicks kick off homestand in opposition to resurgent Kings

To start a five-game homestand in opposition to the Western Convention, the New York Knicks will host the Sacramento Kings on Saturday evening. Winners of three video games out of 4, New York appears to be closing in on the second-placed Boston Celtics, who’re two video games forward of the Knicks within the Japanese Convention standings. New York hasn’t performed since Tuesday’s 99-95 street win over the Brooklyn Nets, when new All-Star starters Karl-Anthony Cities and Jalen Brunson had 25 and 17 factors, respectively.
