Among the well-known opponents who fell victim to the Knicks in April are the Lakers, who found no remedy against Julius Randle (34 points) in their 96: 111 defeat about a month ago – back in New York.
However, the game of the Californians was overshadowed – as in the last few weeks – by the failures of their two best players: Anthony Davis and LeBron James. Fortunately for all fans of the purple and yellow, Davis has been back in the starting five for a few games.
The latest shows how important the return of The Brow is 123-110 win over the Suns in which he scored a whopping 42 points – more than twice as many as the best of his teammates Alex Caruso with 17 points.

It is now important to compare an interesting finding from the Lakers Suns Match with the upcoming duel against the Knicks. Because like the New Yorkers, the Phoenix Suns also previously won a game against Los Angeles without Davis and James.
More precisely, with a 17-point lead. But as I have shown, just under a month later, the return of “The Brow” alone was enough to ensure the defending champion’s success this time with a difference of 13 points with almost the same cast.
The same “Davis effect“Could now also play against the New Yorkers, who also benefited significantly from the loss of the two Lakers superstars in the last duel with LA. But this time the guard, who has since recovered, will set the bar much higher for another Knicks victory.
