Karl-Anthony Towns scored 39 points and Landry Shamet added 36 to help the Knicks beat the Heat 140-132 despite forward OG Anunoby being ruled out in the first quarter because of a left hamstring strain.
The Knicks have also seen a jump in the percentage of their 3-point attempts that have come off the catch, from 70% last season to 74% this season. That’s a good thing, given that league-wide, catch-and-shoot 3-pointers are worth about 12 more points per 100 attempts than off-the-dribble 3-pointers.
New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet experienced the game of his life in the Knicks’ exhilarating 140-132 win over the Miami Heat on Thursday, and the Madison Square Garden crowd showed their appreciation.
