The Knicks and Lakers are two of the highest profile teams in the NBA, and they're both playing well heading into their first matchup of the season. New York is surging, having won five straight and sitting one game out of the second seed in the Eastern Conference. Meanwhile, the Lakers are in the playoff picture and recently held a four-game win streak.
WATCH: Knicks vs. Lakers LIVE on Sling Jalen Brunson has been the catalyst in New York, looking as sharp as ever with Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart all doing their part. The Lakers are a top-heavy unit with LeBron James and Anthony Davis leading the charge, but role players have stepped up in key moments this season.
Austin Reaves has taken a leap in his development, and Dalton Knecht has been a solid addition through the draft. It's the first of two matchups between these squads with the second coming at the beginning of March. This round will be at Madison Square Garden, likely marking one of the final games James plays in the building.
