NEW YORK — The streak is over.
The hottest team in the NBA lost to the coldest on Wednesday night, when the Knicks folded down the stretch and succumbed to a career night from Pascal Siakam in a 113-106 defeat to the Raptors.
Siakam finished with a career-high 52 points, including the dagger and-one layup with 15 seconds remaining. It was the first 50-point game against the Knicks since James Harden dropped 61 for the Rockets in 2019.
