Knicks Regret Passing on George as Playoffs Heat Up

Knicks Regret Passing on George as Playoffs Heat Up

Author: The Daily News Now! April 24, 2026 Duration: 1:33

The Knicks, along with other top seeds, suffered home losses in their playoff openers. Paul George, now thriving in Philly, dropped 19 points and played a clean defensive game. Knicks fans may be relieved they didnt sign George due to injury concerns and performance-enhancing substance rumors. The teams decision to pick Mikal Bridges over George in a trade is now being questioned, as Bridges inconsistent scoring has been a point of frustration. Georges current success, with young guns handling the offense, has fans wondering if a healthy George could have altered the Knicks title path. As the playoffs intensify, the Knicks must bounce back or face more regret over missed opportunities, while George continues to prove his value in Phillys playoff run.
