New York is trending in the opposite direction, rattling off four consecutive wins to move into third place in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks beat the Nets in back-to-back games last weekend before blowing out Washington on Monday. They kickstarted their five-game road trip with a 138-122 win over the Suns, easily covering the spread as 5-point favorites.  

Star point guard Jalen Brunson had 36 points and 10 assists, while forward Karl-Anthony Towns had 34 points and 10 rebounds. All five New York starters finished with at least 14 points in the win over shorthanded Phoenix.
