What is the Knicks’ record for the longest winning streak in the NBA regular season?
Week 21 of the NBA regular season is seeing how the New York Knicks are looking better than they have in a long time.
The Knicks are one of the most popular franchises in the NBA, yet they haven’t had much success when it comes to championships. The last time they won a ring was back in 1973. New York is a very well-liked destination for players in the trade market. This is why it is strange to see that the Knicks don’t perform as they should.
It seems that 2022 is the year that the Knicks will be able to turn things around. In their last game, they beat the Boston Celtics with a nice game-winning shot by team franchise player Julius Randle. The ex-Mavericks player has been performing and earning the money he was paid for after his less-than-gracious exit from the Mavs. The win against Boston makes the ninth game that the Knicks have won in a row.
But what is the longest winning streak in NBA regular history for the Knicks?
The longest Knicks winning streak is 18. The run began with a victory against the Detroit Pistons on October 24, 1969, and concluded with a defeat on November 29, against the same Detroit Pistons.
It is still early to think the Knicks are a serious title contender team. But their performances of late are a good way to start that road.
