The Brooklyn Nets endured what the organization called an “unacceptable” showing on January 22, 2026, suffering a lopsided defeat to the New York Knicks after a complete in-game breakdown.
The setback, described internally as an embarrassment, unfolded when the Nets failed to match the Knicks’ intensity following an early surge. From that point, Brooklyn never regained momentum, leading to one of the season’s most decisive losses and prompting immediate reflection within the locker room.
