On Wednesday evening, the New York Knicks were in Salt Lake City facing off against the Utah Jazz.

The Knicks lost the game by a score of 117-113.

Despite the loss, All-Star forward Julius Randle had a good game with 32 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block while shooting 14/23 from the field and 2/6 from the three-point range in 39 minutes of playing time.

He also made team history by moving ahead of Jamal Crawford (600) for 4th on the Knicks' all-time three-pointers list.

Randle has now made 601 three-pointers as a member of the Knicks, and the next player for him to pass on the list will be Carmelo Anthony (762). 

With the loss, the Knicks fell to 13-10 in their first 23 games, which has them as the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference.  

They are now 6-7 in the 13 games they have played on the road away from Madison Square Garden in New York City. 

Randle is in the middle of a good season and is averaging 22.4 points, 9.7 rebounds and 5.4 assists per contest while shooting 45.3% from the field and 31.0% from the three-point range in 23 games. 

Following the Jazz, the Knicks will play their next game on Friday evening when they visit the Phoenix Suns in Arizona. 

They will play three more games on the road (after the Suns) against the Los Angeles Clippers (on Saturday), Los Angeles Lakers (on Monday) and Brooklyn Nets (on Wednesday).
