Thanks for the Game-Thread Rady .. One of the top Knicks games I been waiting for.
Tibbs have KAT and Deuce as questionable tonight.

Today, ESPN NBA insiders rank Deuce McBride 6th for Sixth Man of the Year and OG Anunoby 5th for Defensive Player of the Year.

Denver added 6th man Westbrook to their winning rotation this season.
We are gonna need a healthy 6th man Deuce McBride to have a great season in 2024-25.
We don't need to rush Deuce back so fast, or is it a mild case of Patellofemoral syndrome?
