Ariel Hukporti credits Mitchell Robinson for his growth as an offensive rebounder:
"I've been watching Mitch… He gave me a lot of tips… He was a beast when it comes to offensive rebounds… I looked at him and was like: ‘How can I help the team in that way?’”

The Knicks better make the NBA Finals next year otherwise this is a massive mistake.
Thibs is the best coach this franchise has had in 25 years. He’s not perfect but I felt he deserved one more year with this group.
Jalen Brunson is putting up Allen Iverson playoff numbers… and barely anyone’s talking about it.
Since 2022, Brunson’s averaged:
🔹 30.2 PPG
🔹 6.8 APG
🔹 56.8 TS%
For comparison, Iverson from 1999–2005:
🔸 30.6 PPG
🔸 6.1 APG
🔸 49.1 TS%
Same production. More efficiency.
Different era. Same killer instinct.
Brunson’s not just playing well,..he’s making history.
And it’s time more people noticed.
"Julius is incredible... The only other playoff series where I felt like I lost my matchup like that was Toronto... I don't feel like I lost my matchup. I lost my matchup."
Draymond Green on playing against Julius Randle in the Warriors-Wolves series 🗣️
Mitchell Robinson with the most amazing defensive display in the playoffs I’ve ever seen! He helped out on 4 Celtics then sealed Brown off in the left corner for the steal which led to 2 pts. #Knicks lead 36-22 with 8 mins left in the first half.
The only two NBA players to have 40+ points & 5+ assists in a road closeout win twice in their career:
- Jalen Brunson
- Michael Jordan
