History

The Knicks’ current ten-game run in 2024 recalls the franchise’s longest recent surge—a 13-game streak in the 2012-13 season that propelled New York to a 47-35 record and a playoff win. After signing point guard Jalen Brunson in June 2022, the team has again climbed the Eastern Conference, echoing the early-1990s Atlantic Division titles under Pat Riley.
