The New York Knicks have taken the next step en route to a legitimate title contention.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This 2024-25 season, the Knicks<\/a> are enjoying immense confidence and momentum that they haven’t felt before in terms of their title odds. With a current 26-15 card that ranks them third in the Eastern Conference standings, they are well positioned to continue making such noise as the year progresses.<\/p>\n

It is without a doubt that the Knicks have leaped tremendously from Jalen Brunson<\/a>, Josh Hart<\/a>, and OG Anunoby<\/a>. But it has to be acknowledged that a major key in their current strong stand has been Karl-Anthony Towns.<\/p>\n

Towns, the team’s prized trade acquisition last summer from the Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a>, has been embracing his first season as a Knick with perfection. As New York’s newest anchor at the middle, Towns is on tear with an average of 25.4 points while pulling down a league-leading 13.9 rebounds and a career-best 55 percent shooting (44.9 percent from three) in 38 games \u2014 solid enough to obtain early MVP consideration<\/a>.<\/p>\n
