Knicks lessons learned in the midst of their five-game road trip
NY Post
After losing their first four road games of the year, the Knicks have an opportunity against the lowly Hornets to secure two straight road wins and end this current five-game road trip with three wins.
As this road trip comes to a close, here are five things we have learned:
It’s not exactly a new revelation how good he is on that side of the ball, but this road trip showed the Knicks defense doesn’t have to just unravel without him.
He is by far their best on-ball defender, playing a key role in keeping ball handlers out of the paint. Without him, there is even greater importance on Miles McBride, Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart as point-of-attack defenders to keep opponents in front of them and prevent the defense from collapsing and needing to help.

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.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. 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.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
