The New York Knicks lost to the Toronto Raptors Saturday afternoon by a final score 128-112, but Knicks shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. had a nice highlight against Raptors forward Pascal Siakam that had to cheer up New York fans at the moment of the play.
Although it might not have been intentional, Tim Hardaway Jr. nutmegged Pascal Siakam from the right wing and finished the play by banking the shot off the backboard.

Tim Hardaway Jr. led the Knicks in scoring Saturday. He finished with 27 points and also had four rebounds and two assists to his name. With the loss, New York is now 4-9 on the season, while the Raptors improved to 12-1. Pascal Siakam scored 23 points for Toronto in 28 minutes, as he continues to show improvement from last season.
The Knicks are still rebuilding and aren't going to contend for a playoff spot this season. Star power forward Kristaps Porzingis is going to miss a majority of the season recovering from his ACL tear. So while Tim Hardaway Jr. might put up some good numbers this season with high volume attempts and cool plays like the one above, it's not going to translate to a lot of wins for the Knicks.
