A 9-game slate of Emirates NBA Cup hoops🏆🏆

The Knicks host the Heat and the Spurs host the Warriors in two star-studded matchups on Prime Video. New York will have to operate without Jalen Brunson (foot), who’s already been ruled out for Friday’s game and might not travel with the team during its five-game road trip, which begins Monday.
A physical affair could be on tap in Houston, as the Rockets and Trail Blazers each grade as top-4 offensive rebounding units in the league — with Houston posting one of the highest early-season OReb rates in league history.
The Pistons look to expand on their 10-2 start — the best record in the Eastern Conference.

KAT’s out the bag

Karl-Anthony Towns (23 points, 9-13 FG, two assists) is dominating early.

Representing the only Knick with more than four points, Miami has a countered with a balanced effort that is yielding a tight game early in the second quarter — Knicks up 43-37.

Additional burden will remain on Town’s shoulders with OG Anunoby ruled out for the remainder of the game with a left hamstring strain.

On the rise📈📈

Ryan Rollins has taken a massive leap in his age-23 season.

Underlying metrics were fond of Rollins last season, with his paint efficiency, pull-up shooting and growing PnR comfort grading in the same breath as some perennial All-Stars. Now his blossoming is coming to fruition with an enlarged role.

Milwaukee faces Charlotte on NBA League Pass.

Ryan Rollins is averaging a career high in:

🔥 PTS (17.3)
🔥 AST (5.7)
🔥 REB (3.7)
🔥 STL (1.8)
🔥 FG% (52.7)
