No different Knicks are becoming a member of Karl-Anthony Cities and Jalen Brunson in San Francisco.
Regardless of a late fan- and media-driven push to get Josh Hart on the All-Star staff, the Knicks have been shut out of the reserves.

“It’s actually an unimaginable activity,” the Knicks coach mentioned. “You attempt to be as honest as potential, you weigh it out and often there’s two or three guys on the finish that you might make a case both approach.
“And then you definitely are likely to — no less than I do — go together with the profitable facet of it. You must determine on one thing that separates the gamers. And it’s unlucky. And then you definitely’re hopeful that in some methods, they will get named later. However there’s all the time going to be a pair guys that get left off which might be going to be deserving.”
The Knicks’ candidates — Hart, Mikal Bridges and OG Anunoby — have been lengthy photographs and missed the lower.
The West reserves are Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards, the Lakers’ Anthony Davis, the Clippers’ James Harden, Memphis’ Jaren Jackson Jr., Houston’s Alperen Sengun, Oklahoma Metropolis’s Jalen Williams and San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama.
