The No. 3 New York Knicks host the No. 6 Atlanta Hawks in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series Saturday at Madison Square Garden, holding home-court advantage through a 53-28 regular-season mark after resting Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Josh Hart in a 110-96 finale loss to Charlotte that clinched their seed. Atlanta, riding a late-season surge to secure the sixth spot at 46-36 despite resting Jalen Johnson, CJ McCollum, Dyson Daniels (toe), and others in a 143-117 defeat to Miami, enters with backup center Jock Landale sidelined by ankle sprain but core rotation largely available. New York swept 2-of-3 regular-season meetings in tight games, leveraging top-tier defense and slower pace against Atlanta's fifth-ranked speed, setting up a stylistic clash with playoff implications for both squads' momentum.
