New York Knicks complete their second-biggest comeback of this season with a 106-102 win over Washington Wizards. Knicks looked exhausted at the start of the match with lousy defensive play and a lethargic duo of Julius Randle and RJ Barrett, and an early lead created by Bradley Beal gave Wizards a huge boost against Knicks who were without Nerlens Noel, Derrick Rose and Reggie Bullock.
Knicks were shooting 29% in the first quarter and Westbrook and Beal worked at securing an early lead and Wizards were up by 15 points by half time, Randle and RJ had a combined 6-of-28 shooting but RJ made a comeback in the second half and was 19 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and Knicks powered through in the end to seal a close win despite best efforts by Wizards to overthrow them
