Detroit Plays New York on 3-Game Win Streak

Karl-Anthony Towns had 27 points and 20 rebounds as New York outscored Detroit 37-13 in the third quarter to avoid an 0-4 start.

  • On Tuesday, the New York Knicks host the Detroit Pistons in an Eastern Conference matchup, with the winless Knicks seeking their first victory against the undefeated Pistons.
  • Defending NBA champion New York has opened 0-3, including a 111-102 loss to the Orlando Magic, after going 53-29 overall last season.
  • Detroit enters undefeated after a 106-93 win over the Philadelphia 76ers, remaining first in the Eastern Conference despite injuries to starters Jalen Duran and Ausar Thompson.
  • Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson said, "We have to continue to put our foot on the gas," while Pistons guard Daniss Jenkins noted, "We knew it was going to make us a better team."
  • No reigning champion has lost more than three consecutive games to open its defense since the 1969-70 Boston Celtics started 0-4, a mark New York hopes to avoid against Detroit on Tuesday.
