We now return to your regularly scheduled result. Looking to earn consecutive wins for just the second time this season, the Knicks came back from the All-Star break still looking like the embarrassment of the Eastern Conference, continuing their battle against the worst teams of all-time while dropping an 18th straight home game in a...

John Jenkins didn’t expect to crack the rotation in his first two games with the Knicks. Jenkins, on his previous 10-day contract with the Wizards, logged just 14 minutes in five games. “It’s kind of nerve-racking because you don’t know what to expect coming into a new team, and only having 10 days to make...

This was early in the remarkable Nets winter of 2001 and 2002, shortly after Jason Kidd arrived from Phoenix and changed everything. The Nets raced out to a nice start, mostly before friends and family at old Continental Arena because the new boss of bosses, Lou Lamoriello, declared attendance padding was a thing of the...

Enes Kanter won the first game he played in as a Trail Blazer on Thursday night and also found time to take an indirect shot at the Knicks. Kanter, who came off the bench for Portland, scored 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the Trail Blazers’ 113-99 win over the Nets at Barclays Center....

Emmanuel Mudiay has walked in Zion Williamson’s busted shoe. Four years ago, Mudiay was a prized teenage prospect, nursing an ankle injury in China. The young guard had been sidelined for three months. The NBA draft was less than three months away, and the guaranteed lottery pick had little to gain by returning for the...

Enes Kanter’s rocky ending with the Knicks didn’t sour him on the organization or the city. In fact, the veteran forward said he would recommend the Knicks to top free agents if they asked him for his input. “Of course. It’s a very good organization. Good people. Amazing city,” he told reporters on Wednesday as...

Knicks coach David Fizdale has plenty of problems to sort through as he navigates through this futile season of losing. But lacking options at point guard isn’t one of them. One point guard (Emmanuel Mudiay) is set to return Friday, another (Frank Ntilikina) will get reevaluated that day, and Fizdale already has Dennis Smith Jr....
NY Post (Greg Joyce) —
Kyrie Irving keeps calling rumors about his free agency a “distraction,” but he doesn’t seem to completely hate the attention. While the Celtics star guard will be connected to the Knicks through speculation until he chooses otherwise this summer, Irving realizes what all the buzz means for him. “Talk follows the great players in the...

As the Knicks regroup for practice Wednesday and host Minnesota in their first post-All-Star break contest Friday, here are five items that bear watching in the season’s unofficial second half. And, yes, gearing up for May 14’s lottery in Chicago is part of it. 1. First-year Knicks coach David Fizdale came to New York with...

Off two games with the Knicks, sharpshooter John Jenkins is on the verge of signing a two-year contract for the league minimum, according to a source. The deal calls for Jenkins to be signed for the rest of this season, and 2019-20 is non-guaranteed but has an early trigger date. Jenkins was signed to a...
NY Post (Marc Berman) —
One theory is Kevin Durant needs another star companion such as Kyrie Irving to make the leap to New York — which is why Knicks brass was so eager to create the extra cap space with the Kristaps Porzingis trade. Knicks president Steve Mills may also want to save a couple of bucks for Durant’s...
NY Post (Marc Berman) —
As the Knicks attempt to best use their $74 million in cap space, they could do worse than unsung Bucks swingman and free-agent-to-be Khris Middleton, who is coming off a breakout All-Star Game on Sunday in Charlotte. While the 27-year-old is not regarded in most circles as a max-contract player, he is coming close. In...
NY Post (Marc Berman) —
If I could give one grade to the Knicks, it would be a “T” for Tank. It’s been a season of auditions with no regard for the win-loss record. As the All-Star break concludes Wednesday with the Knicks’ return to practice, David Fizdale’s 11-47 tank machine will have to go 6-18 in its final 24...
NY Post (Mark W. Sanchez) —
The 11-47 Knicks will not be interesting before this summer’s free agency, but they may have some higher-up-the-ladder intrigue. The James Dolan rumors are back, with The Ringer’s Bill Simmons reporting on his podcast Sunday night the Knicks owner is listening to offers to sell the team. On “The Bill Simmons Podcast,” the former ESPN...
