Returning from a knee injury that RJ Barrett acknowledged will require further maintenance, the 23-year-old made franchise history Monday as the youngest Knick to reach 5,000 career points.
Patrick Ewing, who was 25 when he hit 5,000 points, was the previous record holder.
“That’s pretty cool,” Barrett said after the 111-97 victory over the Sixers. “Just testament to all the work and the trust the organization has had in me and all my coaches, so just going to continue to work. I’m grateful it came on a night we got a win.”

Mason Plumlee, the veteran Clippers center, had to be carried off the court after his knee buckled in the third quarter.
Randle was chasing after a loose ball and dove into the legs of Plumlee, who fell to the court in pain. He was ruled out and the Clippers were left with one center, Ivica Zubac.
The Clippers said Plumlee has a sprained left knee and will be reevaluated Tuesday.
