Josh Hart and Karl-Anthony Towns each logged triple-doubles in a 128-113 victory over the Mavericks on Tuesday night, marking the first time in Knicks history that two teammates accomplished that feat in the same game.
Teammates getting triple-doubles in the same game has only happened 16 times in NBA history.
Hart made history on two fronts Tuesday night. He combined with Karl-Anthony Towns to become the first Knicks teammates to record triple-doubles in the same game. Hart's triple-double was his ninth of the season, surpassing Walt "Clyde" Frazier for the top spot in franchise history. Regardless of Hart's feelings on shooting the basketball, he has been an elite fantasy option this season because of his ability to fill a stat sheet. The Knicks wing has provided third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats for the season. Hart will look to build on Tuesday's performance when the Knicks host the Clippers on Wednesday.
Towns combined with Josh Hart to make some history on Tuesday, as they became the first Knicks teammates to record triple-doubles in the same game. Over the past two weeks, KAT has provided second-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats. While that may not be on par with his season-long value, Towns isn't far off, which is notable since the Knicks have been without starting point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle). The Knicks play three more games during Week 21, starting with the Clippers on Wednesday.
