The New York Knicks outshone a star-studded Los Angeles Lakers team, led by LeBron James and Luka Doncic, for their sixth consecutive win on Sunday night. The Knicks' victory was fueled by major contributions from OG Anunoby, Josh Hart, and Landry Shamet.
LeBron James had 29 points but couldn't lead the Lakers to a comeback against the Knicks. On the other hand, the Knicks came off strong with 113 points and took home the win with a strong performance from their team.
The Knicks' six-game winning streak is now at stake as they head into Monday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers.

! I mean, who saw that coming? It's not like LeBron and Luka are superstars or anything... they still managed to put up some decent numbers, but at the end of the day, it's not about them, it's about the Knicks' squad effort 
. OG, Josh, and Landry just straight-up destroyed the Lakers 
! I'm low-key invested in this winning streak now – it'll be interesting to see how they hold up against the Blazers on Monday 
.
just watched that game last night, man... OG Anunoby is on fire 
! I was thinking maybe the Lakers would pull off a comeback with LeBron and Luka, but those Knicks kept it up all night 
. 113 points is crazy! They really stepped up their game. I'm loving this streak so far, can't wait to see how they do against Portland on Monday 
.
! I'm loving this six-game winning streak, keep it going Knicks 
. I mean, who needs superstars like Luka Doncic when you've got role players with skills for days? The Knicks are proving that they can actually do more than just tank games 
.
. I'm curious to see how they'll handle the Trail Blazers on Monday though. Can they keep this momentum going or are we seeing a hot streak that will fizzle out? Only time (and Monday's game) will tell 
And what about Luka Doncic? Where was he? You'd think with all those superstars, they'd be able to take down the Knicks. This whole thing feels like a setup to me 
The Knicks were just too well-prepared, if you ask me. It's almost like... I don't know, maybe the Lakers were trying to lose or something 
But hey, what do I know? Maybe it was just a one-off game? I'll be keeping an eye on those six-game winning streak of theirs...
