Anunoby literally appeared to bring the house down after one showstopping dunk in the second half: shortly after the slam, which increased the Knicks' lasting lead, the game endured a 10-minute pause after the rim appeared to be crooked after the 240-lb. Anunoby hung on the rim following his dazzling double.

Instead it’s on him, along with the other two starting wings, Bridges and Josh Hart, to lock down the perimeter.
