The New York Knicks are set to face the Washington Wizards on Monday night at Madison Square Garden, where they will play their second game in as many nights. The Wizards come into this matchup struggling, with a 1-5 record this season and are eager to snap a four-game losing streak.
Historically, the Knicks have dominated their recent encounters with Washington, winning nine consecutive games dating back to the 2022-23 season. This track record adds an air of confidence for New York as they look to improve their offensive performance under the direction of Coach Mike Brown.
The Wizards have had a rocky start to the season, with defensive struggles highlighted by being outscored by double digits in several games. Despite some promising performances from their recent draft picks, such as Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George, winning appears to be a secondary focus for the team at this stage.
