The New York Knicks will look to win their 10th straight game on Saturday night in a primetime matchup against the Lakers. New York was shorthanded on Thursday but still pulled out a 109-105 win. Los Angeles was without LeBron James and Anthony Davis on Thursday but beat Boston thanks to Austin Reaves.

The Knicks and Lakers clashed in LA in December, with New York picking up the 114-109 win. Jalen Brunson, Julius Randle, and Immanuel Quickley all scored 20+ points, but on Saturday, the only player from that trio who will be playing is Brunson.

Brunson has helped to keep the Knicks afloat the past few games without Randle and OG Anunoby, and New York could be without the latter for the fourth-straight contest.
