Barrett takes on a King-sized challenge: Guarding LeBron LOS ANGELES — In another in a long line of heartbreaking losses, this one after squandering a 21-point lead and falling to the Lakers in ove...
Career-high 36 points in loss Barrett finished with 36 points (13-28 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-9 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal over 50 minutes during Saturday's 122-115 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Impact Barrett was efficient from the field en route to a career-high 36 points, including a game-tying three with five seconds left in regulation. The third-year wing also finished with at least eight rebounds and five assists in the same game for just the fifth time this season. Over his last 19 contests, Barrett has averaged 22.5 points, 6.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 35.6 minutes while shooting 44.0 percent from the field and 37.2 percent from three. With Julius Randle experiencing a significant regression after a career season a year ago, Barrett has stepped up and solidified himself as a go-to player, especially over the last month-and-a-half.

Drops 23 but Knicks fall Barrett notched 23 points (6-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 8-10 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Friday's 123-108 loss to Milwaukee.
Impact It wasn't the most efficient shooting night for Barrett, who hit just three of his 12 attempts from two-point range, but he had an uncharacteristically efficient night at the free throw line, where he's hitting just 68.9 percent of his attempts on the year. With Julius Randle looking like a complete shell of himself, Barrett has taken over as the Knicks' top offensive threat over the last few weeks. He's now scored at least 15 points in 15 of his last 16 games, averaging 22.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.3 threes during that run.

Drives at will Barrett scored 24 points (9-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-10 FT), tacking on five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Monday's 95-93 loss to the Cavaliers.
Impact Although going five-for-10 from the free-throw line loomed large in a two-point defeat, Barrett was productive once again. His ability to slash inside against a Cavaliers team that is solid defensively is noteworthy. Behind Julius Randle, Barrett seems entrenched as the second scoring option for the Knicks moving forward.

Stellar with 28/14 double-double Barrett recorded 28 points (9-24 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 14 rebounds, six assists and one block in 43 minutes during Sunday's 110-102 win over the Clippers.
Impact Barrett is excellent at going left when driving to the basket, but he made almost all of his shots with his right hand, confounding Clippers defenders who had schemed the former Duke standout differently. The 21-year old is having a great January, averaging 22.9 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists over 11 games.

Posts double-double in loss Barrett totaled 18 points (7-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Monday's 97-87 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Barrett tallied slightly less production on the scoreboard Monday after totaling at least 26 points in each of the last three games, but he led the Knicks in rebounds en route to his second double-double of the 2021-22 campaign. After having his playing time monitored in late December following a lengthy absence, the 21-year-old has resumed his normal workload and has been a strong fantasy contributor.

Another solid performance Barrett ended Saturday's 117-108 win over the Hawks with 26 points (8-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-10 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 41 minutes.
Impact Over his last three games, Barrett's averaging 29.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 37.7 minutes while shooting a scalding 56.3 percent from from three. On the season, the lefty forward is averaging 16.9 points on 35.7 percent shooting from distance, so Barrett is likely due for a regression soon. However, fantasy managers shouldn't fret over the inevitable and enjoy what is arguably the best stretch of the third-year pro's career so far.

This was his second straight game with 30-plus points and he's now cleared that mark in three of his last five contests.
