The Knicks will be much better in their playoff series against the Pistons if Suni Lee or Anne Hathaway are present in the garden, at least that is what Josh Hart seems to think.
“We need Suni or Anne Hathaway in each game during this playoffs race,” Hart joked in the Friday episode of the “Fourth Review Program” with his teammate Jalen Brunson.
Hart’s humorous proclamation comes from the victory of April 6 of the Knicks over the Suns, where he reads, a American Olympic gold gymnast, he attended.
OG Anunoby had a particularly good night with 32 points in the victory, which led some fans to speculate that the Knicks star increased their performance with Lee.
Anunoby and Lee also played a photo together after a December game.
In November, Anunoby crashed into the first row while trying to track a loose ball, hitting corn palomites on an insustive fan.
That fan was Hathaway, who later joked on his Instagram: “I almost had a long time! I always wanted that to happen. Thank you og!”
Anunoby simply responded in the comments: “You’re welcome.”
The Knicks fell to the Bulls in that game, he thought, so perhaps New York would prefer that Lee was presented to support the team.
While Hart presented the hilarious and simple recipe for the success of Anunobies in the podcast, Brunson offered a legitimate vision regarding his teammate.
“What I see [Anunoby] He is a person who comes]every day, [doing] Your work, [working] In his game, “Brunson said.” When we needed it, he just took a step forward. … It is obviously a quiet guy, it is a soft voice type, but when it comes out to a different person, it can be seen because of the way he plays. “
Anunoby averaged 18 points and almost five rebounds this season with 47.6 percent of shots from the field and 37.2 percent from the range of 3 points.
The 6 -foot and 7 -inch striker was in a tear from the end of March to the beginning of April, he thought, including the game against Phoenix that Lee attended. Anunoby averaged 27.6 points per game from March 20 to April 6.
“I don’t think any of us were surprised here,” Brunson said about Anunobies Late arises. “It’s just the moment of what he did, when he did it was perfect for us and our team.”
