There are five games on Tuesday night, including the New York Knicks vs Brooklyn Nets matchup. It's the third meeting of the season between the two New York-based franchises, with the Knicks looking to extend their eight-game winning streak against the Nets.
Brooklyn has not beaten the Knicks since Jan. 28, 2023, when Kyrie Irving was still with the team. Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns have the Knicks looking like playoff contenders with a 28-16 record. They still lack depth, but the two stars might be enough for a postseason run as long as they stay fit.
Meanwhile, the Nets are going in the opposite direction at 14-29. They are likely going to be sellers at the trade deadline, so their record could get worse as the season continues. They have only two wins in their last 10 games and are on a three-game losing streak entering Tuesday's contest.
