RJ Barrett - Another solid effortBarrett produced 19 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-9 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 137-115 victory over the Rockets.
ImpactThe fourth-year forward has maybe not developed into the player some anticipated when he was the third overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, but Barrett has still been a very consistent part of a playoff-bound Knicks roster this season. The 22-year-old has scored in double digits in 17 straight games, averaging 19.5 points, 4.4 boards, 2.8 assists and 1.3 threes while providing a solid complementary scoring option behind Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson (hand).

Quentin Grimes - Just misses double-doubleGrimes amassed 14 points (5-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt), nine rebounds, six assists and two steals across 38 minutes during Monday's 137-115 win over the Rockets.
ImpactThe second-year guard came within one thin dime of recording his first career double-double. Grimes has scored in double digits in three straight games thanks to an incredible eruption from beyond the arc, as he's gone 15-for-29 on three-point attempts. That just builds on the growth in his shooting he's displayed since the All-Star break -- over the last 16 games, Grimes has averaged 2.5 threes a game while shooting 44.4 percent from long range.

Julius Randle - Hits for 26 in winRandle had 26 points (10-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's 137-115 victory over the Rockets.
ImpactThe veteran forward's rebounding has slowed down lately, but Randle remains a beast when it comes to scoring as he closes out a career-best season. Over 13 games in March, he's failed to score at least 20 points only three times while averaging 27.0 points, 7.7 boards, 4.3 assists and 3.2 threes.
