Burks contributed 34 points (12-17 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and three steals across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 94-85 win over Detroit.
Burks had combined for 12 points over his previous two games and has infrequently been hitting double-digit scoring lately. Wednesday's boom propelled the Knicks to a victory, with no teammate logging more than 18 points. The Knicks' league-worst starting unit has been heavily outscored on the season, but regardless of Burks' role, there remains day-to-day volatility.
