NEW YORK KNICKS COACH TOM THIBODEAU ON NBA IN-SEASON TOURNAMENT:
New York Knicks head coach, Tom Thibodeau, has a fierce and unwavering dedication to winning. Whether it’s in or out of season, Thibodeau’s focus is on securing victories for his team. “In season, out of season, any season, I love winning,” Thibodeau said. “That’s all that matters. Get the win. They’re keeping score. Try to win the game.”
RECAP OF NEW YORK KNICKS VS. WASHINGTON:
During the recent game, Jalen Brunson scored an impressive 32 points, supported by Immanuel Quickley’s 27 points, leading the Knicks to a 120-99 victory over Washington. The Knicks’ victory eliminated the Wizards from contention in the NBA’s new in-season tournament, and Washington has been unable to secure a win in any of its three tournament games. On the other hand, New York improved to a 1-1 record.
As part of the preliminary round, teams will play four games each, with point differential potentially acting as the tiebreaker. The Knicks’ 21-point victory was a significant result, showcasing their prowess on the court. However, Thibodeau emphasized the importance of focusing on securing just one more point than the opposing team, reflecting his relentless pursuit of victory.

Julius Randle contributed 22 points for the Knicks, while Kyle Kuzma led the Wizards with 19 points, with Deni Avdija adding 18. The Knicks’ defensive prowess was evident as they outscored Washington 31-15 in the fourth quarter.
