The New York Knicks continued their excellent momentum with a 119-92 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night, securing their fourth consecutive win. Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns were the architects of this convincing success in Toronto.
Bridges Explodes in Third Quarter
Mikal Bridges delivered a remarkable performance with 30 total points, including 19 scored in the third quarter alone. The forward displayed impressive efficiency by making 12 of his 15 field goal attempts, including 4 of 6 from three-point range. This offensive explosion allowed the Knicks to turn the game around after trailing by 12 points in the first half.

OG Anunoby also shined against his former team with 26 points and 6 steals, matching his season high. Josh Hart contributed 22 points while Jalen Brunson added 13 points to the New York cause. This victory marks the Knicks’ 11th consecutive win over the Raptors.
Towns Dominates on the Boards Despite Offensive Struggles
Karl-Anthony Towns had a mixed evening, completely dominating on the boards with 22 rebounds, a personal season high. The center was particularly impressive in the second quarter with 14 rebounds alone. However, he struggled offensively, scoring only 8 points on a poor 3 of 11 shooting.
On the Raptors’ side, Brandon Ingram led the offense with 27 points, supported by Scottie Barnes who recorded a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. RJ Barrett added 14 points, but it wasn’t enough to avoid ending their four-game winning streak.
The turning point of the game came in the third quarter when Anunoby gave the Knicks their first lead on a fastbreak dunk (69-68), launching a decisive 15-2 run to close the period. The Knicks finished 14 of 38 from three-point range after a difficult start (4 of 19 in the first half), while Toronto collapsed from long distance in the second half (1 of 9).
