4: Jan. 28 – Knicks vs. Nets

For the week of Jan. 23, the NBA has created a rivalry week that will feature 11 nationally televised games. One of those games will be Knicks versus the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center on Jan. 28 at 5:30 p.m. ET. The game will be televised on ABC.

This match-up has the potential to deliver, but it’ll largely depend on what happens with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. If the Nets lose them both, the game won’t be that entertaining to fans outside of the city, but because it’s Brooklyn, it’ll still be a must-watch for Knicks fans.

The Knicks will face the Nets as part of the NBA’s rivalry week in January

In 2021-22, New York went 0-4 against Brooklyn, so the Knicks will have the chance to redeem themselves in 2022-23. The game in mid-January will mark the second time that New York will square off against Brooklyn, with the first contest taking place on Nov. 9 across the river, which will be televised on ESPN,

Rivalry week is an interesting concept, and based on the slate of games that’ll be happening that week, the other 10 games will be a must-watch as well, but if you can’t watch them all, be sure to tune in on Saturday night.
