Out with the old, in with the new: Ravens unveil new uniforms
Baltimore Ravens unveil new uniforms, including a striking black helmet!

Jalen Johnson's performance against the Knicks has been subpar, averaging 19.7 points and 44.9% shooting in three games. This trend could impact the Hawks' playoff series against New York, starting Saturday at Madison Square Garden.
Jalen Johnson has ascended to All-Star and face of the franchise status for the Atlanta Hawks. His numbers, however, have trended downward in matchups against the Knicks, a theme that could favor New York in its first-round series against the Hawks with Game 1 tipping-off at Madison Square Garden on Saturday at 6 p.m.
Johnson is a leading candidate for the NBA’s 2026 Most Improved Player of the Year award, a first-time All-Star who averaged 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds and 7.9 assists in Atlanta this season. Yet the Hawks’ star — the player whose shoulders carry the weight of Atlanta’s playoff hopes — has made just 22 of his 49 field goal attempts taken against the Knicks this season.
Johnson is averaging 19.7 points, 10 rebounds and 9.3 assists on 44.9% shooting from the field in three games against the Knicks this season. That’s fewer points, a worse field goal percentage and more turnovers (3.7) in matchups featuring the team the Hawks’ star will need to face in the playoffs.
Johnson’s field goal percentage through three games against the Knicks this season was one of his seven worst shooting showing against any team this year.
“Jalen [Johnson] is a really, really good player, a great player. And shoot, he’s [in the running to win] a lot of awards this year,” Knicks head coach Mike Brown said after practice at the team’s Tarrytown training facility on Thursday. “Him and Nickeil [Alexander-Walker] have led the charge in [Atlanta’s] resurgence here at the end of season; so a lot of respect there.”
The trend reeks of OG Anunoby.
After all, the Knicks traded Immanuel Quickley, R.J. Barrett and a second-round pick to the Toronto Raptors, then re-signed the versatile, two-way forward to a franchise-record $212.5 million deals specifically for matchups like this.
Johnson is a high-flying, 6-foot-8 forward who’s become a nightly triple double threat for the Hawks after the Trae Young trade with the . Brown, who was as complimentary of Johnson as he was Atlanta’s starting center Onyeka Okoungwu, said it’s taken a total team effort to defend the Hawks’ star forward, as many coaches repeat about the league’s elite players.
Jalen Johnson is averaging 19.7 points, 10 rebounds, and 9.3 assists with a 44.9% shooting percentage in three games against the Knicks this season.
Johnson's struggles against the Knicks, including a low field goal percentage, could negatively impact the Hawks' chances in their playoff series.
Jalen Johnson is a leading candidate for the NBA’s 2026 Most Improved Player of the Year award and has also made the All-Star team for the first time.
The Hawks vs. Knicks playoff series starts on Saturday at 6 p.m. at Madison Square Garden.

He said Josh Hart was the driving force behind holding Johnson to an 8-of-19 shooting night with five turnovers in their final meeting on April 6. Johnson nearly triple-doubled (20 points, 12 assists, nine rebounds) against the Knicks on Dec. 27 but shot just 7-of-16 from the field.
“In our last game, Josh matched up with him a little bit more than OG. So it’s more of a team thing than anything else. In this league it’s very hard — especially when you’re talking about a great player like Jalen Johnson — it’s very hard to stop anybody one-on-one. And so your team defense has to be on point, and you just have to make guys work.
“And if you make them work, you hope the basketball gods are in your favor a little bit, and they end up missing some shots, as well.”
Hart said the Knicks can’t expect to magically replicate their in-season success against the Hawks in the playoffs. The Knicks beat the Hawks two times out of three, both wins by three-point margins and the loss by 12 in a. Jan. 2 game Karl-Anthony Towns sat due to injury.
“They had guys out. The regular season honestly doesn’t really matter when you look at it in terms of a scope like this, because you never know in the regular season, there’s a lot of things that you have. I don’t know if they were on back-to-backs, who’s in, who’s out, whatever it is.
“So you throw those [regular-season games] out the window and you just focus on the team and the personnel that they have right now: the tendencies, what they like to do, hone in on those kinds of things, and move forward with that.”
The Hawks are more than a one-trick pony. The move away from Young, who’s taken the ire of Knicks fans on the road with him to the nation’s capital, ushered in a more free-flowing style of play that runs through Johnson but extends throughout the rest of a deep and versatile Hawks roster. Johnson, for example, shot poorly from the field on April 6, but Nickeil Alexander-Walker made seven 3s on 11 attempts for 36 points and a three-point Knicks margin of victory despite just eight Atlanta bench points.
The Knicks won the season series, 2-1, against the Hawks, but each of their two victories came by three-point margins. Atlanta’s attack begins with Johnson, and the Knicks have some answers. They already have some solutions just two days out from the onset of their first-round playoff series.
“They’re a great team. It’s not a surprise [we barely won],” said Towns on Wednesday. “We had to fight to find a way to win at the end, but at the end of the day, it didn’t change what I thought. I knew they were a great team, and we’ve got to be ready.”
