Knicks' Mikal Bridges holds Trae Young in check, gets it done on both ends of the court
How the Nets welcomed back Knicks' Mikal Bridges in his first Brooklyn game since trade
This past offseason, the Brooklyn Nets decided to fully embrace the rebuilding process as they traded away Mikal Bridges, arguably their best player during the 2023-24 season, to the New York Knicks in exchange for a haul of future first-round picks.

Josh Hart pirouetted as he swiped the ball from Guerschon Yabusele, then floated the pass to Mikal Bridges for the alley-oop slam, then screamed as Bridges hung on the rim with one hand. That was the exclamation point on a Wednesday night when the ‘Nova Knicks’ fingerprints were all over a 125-119 overtime victory over the shorthanded 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center.
New York Knicks shooting guard Josh Hart had an interesting answer to a question about Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young.

The Knicks have hovered around the middle of the pack in points allowed per possession all season, but Anunoby is the group’s backbone. New York doesn’t play with a conventional rim protector.

The Knicks were sluggish, the offense inexplicably disappeared for most of the fourth quarter and they were one Brooklyn shot away from their worst loss of the season.
With the Knicks facing one of the strongest remaining schedules in the NBA — and coming off of a stretch of six losses in the span of nine games — all wins count evenly.
