The cold didn’t help the Knicks in Los Angeles.

The day before the New York team took on the Lakers, a few Knicks, led by big man Kristaps Porzingis ^[1], visited Cryohealthcare on La Cienega Boulevard, where they bumped into fellow New Yorkers Russell Simmons ^[2] and p.r. guru Ronn Torossian.

As they took three-minute turns in chambers cooled down to minus 160 degrees Fahrenheit, Porzingis was heard saying he wished he could do cryo every day. But the chill didn’t work — the Knicks lost by 20 points.

Other fans of the freeze include LeBron James ^[3], Stephen Curry ^[4], Jennifer Aniston ^[5] and Floyd Mayweather Jr ^[6].
