The New York Knicks secured the Eastern Conference’s No. 3 playoff seed with a convincing victory over the Toronto Raptors on April 10, 2026.
The win not only locks New York into third place but also positions Toronto as a potential first-round opponent, depending on how the remaining regular-season games shake out.
By claiming the third seed, the Knicks ensured home-court advantage in at least the opening round of the postseason. Toronto’s standing will determine whether the two teams meet again when the playoffs begin next week.
