The Knicks lost key players to injury during their playoff run, including Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson, and Bojan Bogdanovic. Despite their setbacks, they nearly advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals but fell short in a Game 7 loss to the Pacers.
All-Star point guard Jalen Brunson disagreed with the narrative that injuries were the sole reason for the team's defeat, emphasizing missed opportunities and chances to win key games. With their stars returning healthy next season, the Knicks look to make a stronger playoff push.
