The New York Knicks’ star trio of Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Josh Hart took a break from their NBA schedule to enjoy the NFC Championship game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders. The Eagles’ dominant 55-23 victory sparked a lighthearted roasting session, with Brunson and Towns teasing Hart for his support of the Commanders. 
As the game slipped away from Washington, Towns attempted to reach out to Hart, only to be met with silence. ” @joshhart answer your damn phone,” Towns jokingly tweeted. Brunson chimed in, “Josh left before the 4qtr started @joshhart,” which Towns confirmed. Hart eventually responded, “Have to get home so I can sleep. One of us has to play defense tomorrow.”
The banter between the three teammates showcased their camaraderie and ability to poke fun at each other. As the Knicks resume their NBA season, they’ll look to build on their impressive 30-16 record, which has them sitting third in the Eastern Conference. With 36 games remaining, the team is poised to make a strong push for the playoffs.
The Knicks’ success can be attributed to the outstanding performances of Brunson, Towns, and Hart. Brunson leads the team with 25.9 points and 7.4 assists per game, while Towns averages a double-double with 24.9 points and 13.9 rebounds. Hart contributes 14.1 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game. Both Brunson and Towns have earned All-Star selections, a testament to their hard work and dedication.
As the Knicks prepare for their remaining two matchups in January, they’ll face the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday and the Denver Nuggets on January 29 at Madison Square Garden. With their strong team chemistry and individual talents, the Knicks are well-positioned to make a deep playoff run.
