The Story in 60 Seconds

Daily Knicks analyzes three notable statistics explaining the New York Knicks' slow 2-4 start to the season following their title-winning campaign. The team ranks worst in the NBA from inside the arc, shooting just 47.1 percent on two-point attempts, with starters Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and Mikal Bridges all converting well under half of their two-point shots.
