Knicks relying on Jalen Brunson, Julius Randle even more since OG Anunoby trade
NY Post
There have been two clear changes in the Knicks since the blockbuster OG Anunoby trade.
1. Their defense is significantly improved.
2. There is a lot more offensive responsibility on the shoulders of Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson.
The Knicks have always relied on their two stars, rarely winning if both perform poorly, but that dependency has now increased.
They lost 33.2 points per game in dealing RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley to the Raptors, important secondary scoring options, and didn’t fully replace that offensive firepower.
Onunoby came over having averaged 15.1 points per game with Toronto this season.
Aaron Judge is still in the middle of what Aaron Boone called a “historic” season, having broken the 50-homer milestone for the second time in three years and the third time in his career.
For Brian Daboll, the decision is straightforward.
TORONTO — The Mets went the first 110 pitches they saw without getting a hit Wednesday and then received a huge one from their MVP, if not the National League’s.

Ravens linebacker Kyle Van Noy ripped the Chiefs’ medical staff for its handling an eye injury he suffered during Baltimore’s loss on Thursday night, calling their response “unprofessional.”
The Vikings started beating Giants quarterback Daniel Jones so badly Sunday that even Minnesota outside linebacker Jonathan Greenard started to feel bad about it.
When the Yankees start the playoffs next month, they might lack a true closer — and Aaron Boone, at least for now, sounds OK with that.
The Falcons did not get what they paid for in Week 1.
Johnny Gaudreau’s widow, Meredith Gaudreau, announced during the NHL star’s funeral Monday that she is pregnant with their third child.
