knicks-game-3-loss-hawks-bridges-benched
The Knicks dropped Game 3 of their playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday night, a defeat punctuated by the decision to sit forward Mikal Bridges after another low-impact outing.
Bridges, whose recent struggles have drawn increasing scrutiny, was removed from the rotation during the second half as the Knicks searched for offensive momentum. The move underscored a night in which New York failed to keep pace with Atlanta and now faces added pressure heading into the next matchup.
The loss leaves the Knicks looking for answers before Game 4, while Bridges’ status will be closely watched after his latest disappearing act on the postseason stage.
