Hart is the first Knick, and fifth overall, to earned a triple-double in back-to-back games since Michael Ray Richardson did so in 1981 and that unique brotherhood also includes Walt "Clyde" Frazier, Richie Guerin, and Jerry Lucas.

Karl-Anthony Towns was the star of the show as he led the Knicks with a monster 31-point, 21-rebound double-double. The four-time All-Star also logged four assists, a steal, a block and three triples in 37 minutes of action as he turned in another massive performance.
