In a highly contested matchup, the New York Knicks fell to the Golden State Warriors 114-102, ending their winning streak at three games. The game began with disappointing news for the Knicks as Karl-Anthony Towns was ruled out for personal reasons, leaving a significant void on the court. Despite starting strong, with Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby leading the charge, the Knicks struggled to maintain their momentum in the second half.

Golden State came alive after halftime, led by Stephen Curry, who added to his impressive career record at Madison Square Garden with a stellar performance. The Knicks' defense faltered, particularly during transition plays, giving the Warriors ample opportunity to capitalize. The Knicks shot a dismal 8-of-33 from three-point range, and their inability to convert during crucial moments ultimately cost them the game.
