The New York Knicks outlasted the Memphis Grizzlies 130-119, using elite offensive efficiency and a major rebounding edge to secure an 11-point win. New York shot 35-of-55 from the field (64.0%) and moved the ball consistently, finishing with 36 assists. Memphis kept pace with perimeter shooting (16 made threes), but the Knicks’ ability to score efficiently inside the arc and control the glass created separation over the course of the game. OG Anunoby led New York with 25 points, setting the tone as the Knicks repeatedly found high-quality looks. Mikal Bridges added 24 points, and Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 20, giving New York three 20-point scorers in a balanced attack. The Knicks’ offense was not just about shot-making—New York’s 36 assists reflected steady creation and quick decision-making that punished defensive breakdowns. Memphis received 20 points from Gregory Jackson and 17 from Olivier-Maxence Prosper, and the Grizzlies’ 16 three-pointers helped them stay within striking distance. However, the overall shot-volume battle tilted heavily toward New York, highlighted by the Knicks’ 49 rebounds compared to Memphis’ 20. Even with Memphis posting 27 assists, the Grizzlies struggled to generate enough extra possessions to offset New York’s efficiency. Going forward, the result reinforces New York’s formula when its offense is humming: efficient scoring paired with strong team play and control of the boards. For Memphis, the three-point production was a positive, but the Grizzlies will need improved rebounding and overall possession control to turn strong shooting nights into wins against high-efficiency opponents.
