The Brooklyn Nets (1-8) have been having a rough start to the 2025-26 NBA season as they can’t seem to string together winning basketball for an entire game at this point of the season. Brooklyn will have to hope that they can figure it out soon with a matchup on Sunday looming at the New York Knicks (5-3) and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place!
The Nets come into this game following a 125-107 NBA Cup loss to the Detroit Pistons on Friday in which Brooklyn played its first game of the season without guard Cam Thomas, who is out for the next month or so with his left hamstring strain. Forward Michael Porter Jr. did his best to pick up the slack with 28 points and five rebounds while forward Noah Clowney continued his impressive play with 19 points and two assists of his own.
The Knicks enter this matchup after a 137-114 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday in which New York blew the game open in the second half against a Minnesota team with Anthony Edwards in the lineup. Forward OG Anunoby led the way for the Knicks with his 25 points and eight rebounds while guard Jalen Brunson contributed with 23 points and 10 assists in the victory.
