The Knicks took on the Hawks last Christmas, winning 101-87.

The game featured a triple-double from Kemba Walker, with the former Knicks guard becoming the first player in team history to achieve the feat over Christmas.

The Knicks have a long tradition of playing on Christmas Day and put on some of the best individual performances in NBA history, including Bernard King setting the Christmas Day record with 60 points in 1984 for the Knicks at the Garden.
