Nets Dominate Knicks in NBA Summer League with Strong Israeli Contributions
In an NBA Summer League game held early Saturday morning, the Brooklyn Nets decisively defeated the New York Knicks 91-65. Israeli players Danny Wolf and Ben Sarf continued to make their mark, with Wolf scoring 9 points and grabbing 8 rebounds, while Sarf contributed 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 the quarter's end. New York briefly took the lead in the second quarter, but strong performances from Wolf and teammate Yegor Dyumin helped Brooklyn lead 38-33 at halftime.
The Nets pulled away in the third quarter with a dominant 30-9 run, effectively sealing the game. Wolf impressed with a spectacular one-handed three-pointer at the shot clock's end, a highlight shared on official NBA social media accounts. Dyumin and Mikal Brown Jr. led Brooklyn with 20 points each, while Chainey Johnson added 11 points and 9 rebounds. For the Knicks, Pacome Dadia scored 20 points and Tyler Nickel added 18, but their efforts fell short against the Nets' strong offense.
