PHILADELPHIA β Xfinity Mobile Arena is truly Madison Square Garden South. Knicks fans have taken over the arena twice this season and were in full voice during the Knicks’ 138-89 rout of the 76ers on Wednesday night. βIt’s fun,β Josh Hart said. “It’s taking some getting used to now. Everywhere on the East Coast it’s […]
The Knicks have not made any announcements regarding Miles McBride’s surgery, but a timetable has emerged. He underwent surgery for a sports hernia on Friday, The Post confirmed. According to a league source, his expected recovery schedule is 6 to 8 weeks. That’s slightly faster than two experts The Post spoke to believe, who said […]
Josh Hart’s late-night box score is like a box of chocolates: you never quite know what you’re going to get. He adapts his aggressiveness in that area to what the game needs. At times, he becomes the primary facilitator, orchestrating the Knicks’ offense, pushing them into transition and giving Jalen Brunson a chance to make […]
It’s incredible how quickly the mood around a team can change. Last week, the Knicks looked lost after losing nine of 11 games. Jalen Brunson asked his teammates to have more βcareβ than they showed. Their competitors were questioned. And just like that, that discourse is on the back burner. The dominant team that was […]
Jalen Brunson said a lot with just a few words. βWe just have to pay a little more attention to what we’re doing,β Brunson said. βIt has to mean something more to us.β For a team that entered the season with expectations of the NBA Finals or failure, there shouldn’t be a question at mid-year […]

PORTLAND, Ore. β If the Knicks had won instead of floundering, Josh Hart would have rested for a few more days. After all, he heard his right ankle pop on Christmas. It was a bad sprain. But while he played eight straight games, the Knicks endured the worst part of the season β losing in […]
PHOENIX β It was easy to appreciate Josh Hart when he wasn’t around. And with Hart set to return from an eight-game absence β he was upgraded to questionable for Sunday’s game against the Trail Blazers β the Knicks are hoping his Super Glue powers will help bring them back together. βHe is the heart […]
PHOENIX β Josh Hart, who has missed eight straight games with a sprained ankle, is on his way to making contact in practice and is βcertainly closeβ to a return, according to Mike Brown. That update means Hart could play again in Portland as early as Sunday, and the Knicks need him. They are 3-5 […]
Josh Hart is making an impact in so many different ways. Right now, though, it’s one of his lesser-discussed skills that the Knicks miss the most. Without him there is a dire lack of a facilitator and playmaker. The Knicks’ ball movement on offense has stagnated since Josh Hart was out with an ankle injury. […]
