Nets Dominate Knicks in NBA Summer League with Strong Israeli Performances
In an NBA Summer League game held early Saturday morning, the Brooklyn Nets defeated the New York Knicks 91-65. Israeli players Danny Wolf and Ben Sarf contributed solid performances in the match, with Wolf scoring 9 points and grabbing 8 rebounds, while Sarf added 7 points and 5 rebounds. This game marked Wolf's first appearance as he prepares for the upcoming season.
The first quarter was competitive, with Brooklyn initially taking a 7-point lead following Sarf's early baskets, but the Knicks quickly closed the gap to trail by just one point at quarter's end. New York briefly took the lead in the second quarter, but strong plays from Wolf and teammate Yegor Dyumin helped Brooklyn lead 38-33 at halftime.
The Nets pulled away decisively in the third quarter, outscoring the Knicks 30-9 to effectively seal the game. Early in the fourth quarter, Wolf made a highlight-worthy one-handed three-pointer just before the shot clock expired, a play that was featured on official NBA social media accounts. Brooklyn maintained their momentum to secure the win.
Dyumin and Mikal Brown Jr. led the Nets with 20 points each, while Chainey Johnson contributed 11 points and 9 rebounds. For the Knicks, Pacom Dadia scored 20 points and Tyler Nickel added 18, but their efforts were insufficient to challenge Brooklyn's dominance.
