The New York Knicks are one of only four teams above .500 in the Eastern Conference and are riding a four-game win streak. They hope to extend the streak to five on Saturday against the worst team in the Western Conference.
The Jazz have won only two games this season and have lost their last four. Utah's most recent loss came on Thursday against a San Antonio team without Victor Wembanyama. Lauri Markkanen led the Jazz with 27 points (8-of-17).
Like the Knicks, the Jazz are dealing with some injuries. Second-year forward Taylor Hendricks is out for the season, one starter is listed as out for the game against New York, and two other starters are questionable.
The Knicks will be without Mitchell Robinson and Precious Achiuwa, but fans hope Miles McBride will return after missing several games.
