For the first time in nearly a half-century, the Knicks have two All-Star starters.<\/p>\n
Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns were both named on the Eastern Conference squad for the Feb. 16 game in San Francisco, the NBA announced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The other East starters are predictably and deservedly Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum and Donovan Mitchell. The West starters are Nikola Jokic, Steph Curry, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, LeBron James and Kevin Durant.<\/p>\n
The previous two Knicks to start in the same All-Star game were Clyde Frazier and Earl Monroe in 1975.<\/p>\n
For Brunson, it\u2019s a second All-Star selection after debuting last season. <\/p>\n
The Knicks captain is averaging 26 points and a career-high 7.3 assists. <\/p>\n
New York (29-16) is third in the East and on pace to win 53 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For Towns, it\u2019s a fifth All-Star selection but first as a starter. <\/p>\n
It was more difficult to start in the West in recent years with Jokic, James, Durant, Kawhi Leonard and Anthony Davis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Towns is also enjoying his best rebounding season with a conference-leading 13.9 per game. <\/p>\n
He\u2019s averaging 25.1 points \u2014 his most since 2019-20 \u2014 and is now the first Knicks All-Star center since Tyson Chandler in 2013 (Kristaps Porzingis was a power forward in 2018).\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
