TL;DR
The New York Knicks were eliminated from the NBA Cup quarterfinals after a 108-100 loss to the Atlanta Hawks, missing out on a trip to Las Vegas for the semifinals. The Knicks struggled with poor shooting and were out-rebounded, while Trae Young led the Hawks with 22 points and 11 assists. The defeat also cost Knicks players over $50,000 in potential prize money. Despite being favorites, the Knicks' strategy to avoid facing the Celtics backfired, and they now head to Orlando to face the Magic.
