One of the main reasons for the Knicks fights on Wednesday night was the uninspired game from the bench. So many times this season, the Knicks second unit stepped in and led the charge, but that wasn’t the case against Orlando. Immanuel Quickley had one of his worst games as a pro, going 1 in 12, and the Knicks bench was beaten 42-26 on the night.
Randle led the way for the Knicks with 25 points and seven rebounds, but Barrett (15 points) and Payton (13 points) were the only other Knicks in double digits.
