The New York Knicks have proven to remain as one of the titans of the East over the past few seasons. New York holds firm possession of the conference's No. 3 seed with a 27-15 record, with their 125-119 overtime victory against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night giving the group a renewed sense of focus after dropping five of their previous seven contests.

The New York Knicks took the league by storm this past offseason, landing both Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns in trades. After a successful season last year, New York didn't sit on their hands and instead decided to throw all their chips into the middle of the table.

There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the New York Knicks and their center position. The last time concerns were raised, the Knicks traded for Karl-Anthony Towns, so there is a chance that another deal could be consummated with just three weeks before the Feb.

Jalen Brunson scored 16 of his 38 points in the fourth quarter and overtime, and Josh Hart had the 11th triple-double of his career as the New York Knicks beat the Philadelphia 76ers 125-119 on Wednesday night.

Josh Hart pirouetted as he swiped the ball from Guerschon Yabusele, then floated the pass to Mikal Bridges for the alley-oop slam, then screamed as Bridges hung on the rim with one hand. That was the exclamation point on a Wednesday night when the ‘Nova Knicks’ fingerprints were all over a 125-119 overtime victory over the shorthanded 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center.
