Bojan Bogdanovic, Donte DiVincenzo broke shooting slumps when Knicks needed it most
NY Post
The Knicks finally got the type of shooting they need.
During their 107-98 win over the Cavaliers on Sunday night at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, in which star Jalen Brunson exited just 47 seconds into the game with what the team called a left knee contusion, the Knicks got the type of performance from Bojan Bogdanovic they had envisioned when trading for him ahead of the deadline, and one that had been hard to find in his early days with the team.
And the Knicks got the type of showing from Donte DiVincenzo they had become accustomed to this year, but had gone missing in recent games.
With their ever-growing list of injuries they needed every bit of it to beat the Cavaliers. And for their ambition to make a serious run in the postseason, it will certainly need to continue.
Bogdanovic scored 20 points on 8-for-15 shooting in Sunday’s win.
Just one game prior, he scored just four points — all on free throws — on 0-for-7 shooting in a loss to the Warriors.

Dylan Garand knew the number off the top of his head. He knew that, between the regular season and playoffs, he’d logged over 160 games with AHL Hartford, and he was right. Before the Rangers recalled him Friday, Garand had served as the Wolf Pack’s goaltender 165 times.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.
Don’t close the curtain on “Mean” Joe Greene.
The Knicks are on a five-game winning streak and flooded with concerns.

That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.
