Knicks Fans Fooled by Viral Fake Post About OG Anunoby
The New York Knicks dominated the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night with a 137–114 victory at Madison Square Garden, improving their record to 5–3 and keeping their unbeaten home streak alive.
While OG Anunoby had an impressive performance, online fans were misled by a viral fake post that exaggerated his stats. The post falsely claimed that Anunoby achieved a historic line of 60 points, 32 rebounds, and 14 steals plus blocks during the game.
“OG Anunoby tonight: 60 points, 32 rebounds, 8 steals, 6 blocks, 22–25 FG. Decent night.”
In reality, Anunoby scored 25 points on 10-of-17 shooting, grabbed eight rebounds, and made two steals—an excellent showing, but nowhere near the numbers circulating online. The forged post on X attracted more than one million views by Thursday morning, confusing many fans about his actual performance.

- Real stat line: 25 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals.
