The Knicks were without two starters against the Celtics, as Kristaps Porzingis and Joakim Noah both missed the game. Lance Thomas was also out, leaving the Knicks very shorthanded in the frontcourt. They got excellent performances from Willy Hernangomez, Marshall Plumlee, and Mindaugas Kuzminskas as replacements; can they do it again?
The Knicks will have their hands full trying to contain the Wizards dynamic duo of John Wall and Bradley Beal in the backcourt. Defense has been a struggle for the Knicks all season; will they be able to contain Wall and Beal? We will have to watch and see.
