The New York Knicks showcased their highly anticipated new starting lineup in their preseason-opening win against the Charlotte Hornets. The lineup, consisting of Karl-Anthony Towns, Mikal Bridges, Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and OG Anunoby, demonstrated its potential in limited minutes. Towns displayed his impressive shooting range with a 3-pointer from 27 feet out. His ability to shoot from deep will create more opportunities for his teammates by drawing opposing centers away from the paint. The spacing provided by a traditional lineup allows Towns to operate with more room on the court. Bridges showed selectivity in his shot selection and took advantage of open lanes to score efficiently. With three players who have been primary options before but can adapt to role-player mode when needed, the Knicks’ offense becomes versatile and efficient. However, one weakness in this lineup is Hart’s lack of shooting ability which may be exploited by opponents who dare him to shoot from beyond the arc. while it is still early in the preseason and chemistry is still being built among the players, there are clear indications of both strengths and weaknesses within this new-look Knicks starting lineup.
