RJ Barrett Posts Season-High 44 Points
2 years agoNew York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett had a special night on Friday against Chicago, shooting 14-for-20 from the field en route to a season-high 44 points. He hit 6-for-6 from deep and was 10-for-13 with his free throws. Incredibly, the Knicks couldn't turn Barrett's big performance into a victory, with the team blowing a three-point lead inside the final 30 seconds of action. In 39 minutes of playing time, Barrett completed his line with seven, rebounds, four assists and six turnovers. His scoring record stands at 46 points, so Barrett came very close to having a career night. With a 30-point effort against Toronto also under Barrett's belt from this week, the 22-year-old is on his way to closing out 2022 in style.
