The LA Clippers and New York Knicks will lock horns with each other for an enticing 2021-22 NBA season game at Madison Square Garden on Sunday.
The Clippers are coming off a 102-101 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. They erased a 24-point second-half deficit to claim a surprise victory over Joel Embiid and Co. Reggie Jackson led the charge for LA with 19 points as all starters scored in double-digits. Meanwhile, their bench outscored the Sixers' reserves 32-14, which proved to have a massive impact on the eventual outcome.
Meanwhile, the Knicks are on a three-game losing streak entering this game. The New Orleans Pelicans handed them a 102-91 loss in their previous outing. New York's starters misfired in this contest, as Julius Randle, Evan Fournier and Kemba Walker combined for only 15 points on the night.
