New York Knicks received a setback in the form of Landry Shamet's injury.
The New York Knicks will kick off the week by visiting the Barclays Center to lock horns with the Brooklyn Nets in an NBA 2025-26 regular season game on November 24. This will be the second time both teams will be up against each other in the current season. Their previous meeting at the Madison Square Garden saw the hosts recording a lopsided win. In the upcoming game, the Nets would want to avenge the humiliating loss and aim to tie the series against the reigning Eastern Conference semifinalists.
The hosts will be on the back of a ten-point loss to the Toronto Raptors, marking their seventh loss in the last ten games. On the other hand, the Knicks slumped to the Orlando Magic in blowout fashion in their most recent outing. This was their third loss in the last five games and dropped their tally to 9-6 in the ongoing season. Notably, both teams are heading off defeats and would want to get back to winning games.
Considering the outcome of their previous encounter as well as current momentum, it seems like the Knicks would extend their winning record over the Nets. However, before we get into that analysis, let’s have a look at the injury report and predicted starting lineups for both teams.
