The Knicks are defeated by the Mavericks

Jalen Brunson joins the long list of injured players at the Knicks, while Luka Doncic is fine and is the great protagonist of the Mavs’ victory at Madison Square Garden. The hosts have 36 points from Donte DiVincenzo and a triple double from Josh Hart (23 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds) but never manage to worry Dallas, who has 19 points from former player Tim Hardaway Jr.

The direct comparison with former teammate Jalen Brunson is off, but Luka Doncic still decides to take the stage and against the Knicks he scores a 39-point performance, of which 27 in the second half alone, 11 assists and 8 rebounds with 54.2 % from the field.
