PREVIEW: The Golden State Warriors arrive at Madison Square Garden ranked first in high-frequency three-point shooting at 50.8% of their attempts, showcasing their commitment to perimeter-oriented basketball. Golden State is seeking to end a four-game losing streak after dropping to ninth place in the Western Conference with a 32-34 record. With Stephen Curry sidelined due to a knee injury, Brandin Podziemski has stepped into a larger role for the struggling Warriors. However, the New York Knicks boast the fourth-best three-point shooting efficiency in the league and rank fourth in limiting attacking rim opportunities on defense, presenting a formidable defensive challenge. The Knicks are riding a two-game winning streak and sitting in third place in the Eastern Conference with a 43-26 record. New York has been particularly dominant at home with a 23-9 record, and the team ranks eighth in defensive rebounding at 33.4 per game led by Karl-Anthony Towns. Jalen Brunson continues to anchor the offense with 26.3 points per game, while OG Anunoby is shooting an impressive 53.3% over the last ten contests. The Knicks also rank low in attacking the rim frequency, suggesting a team that relies heavily on perimeter and mid-range production rather than aggressive paint attacks.
