The match turned out to be one of those where the audience does not sit down until the final siren. After the first quarter, the scoreboard showed the same numbers — 27:27, and by the big break, the equality remained — 49:49. It seemed that the game would go on until the last possession. That's how it turned out in the end. In the third quarter, Utah tried to make a small breakthrough and pulled ahead. But Golden State kept coming back into the game. In the fourth quarter, the hosts had to literally gnaw out every point. And at the right moment, the youth worked. Bryce Sensabo became the most productive player of the match, scoring 21 points.

New York played a difficult away match against the Los Angeles Clippers and lost with a score of 118:126. The start of the meeting looked encouraging. The Knicks tried to dictate their pace, actively attacked and stayed close in the score. But in the second quarter, the hosts gradually seized the initiative and went into the break with a slight advantage. After a long break, the Clippers added and brought the gap to about eight points. However, New York did not give up. In the fourth quarter, the visitors staged a real assault and reduced the gap to four points. The comeback seemed close. But several misses in a row and not the most reliable protection under the ring deprived the team of a chance to escape. The Knicks' best player was Karl-Anthony Towns, who scored 35 points. Despite this defeat, New York's position in the Eastern Conference table remains strong - third place and a balance of 41 wins against 25 losses.
