The Knicks played at the league’s slowest pace over their first 50 games this season, averaging 95.4 possessions per game.
Over their last seven games, NY has averaged 100.1 possessions per game, which ranks inside the top-10 in the NBA during this span

Mitchell Robinson has grabbed at least 4 offensive rebounds in each of his nine games.
That’s the longest such streak in the NBA in two years (Andre Drummond in January of 2020) – 4:36 PM
