New York: Jalen Brunson, who led his side to win with 30 points and nine assists, was crucial to the comeback.
After taking a commanding early lead, the Warriors appeared poised to win. However, with tighter defence and sharper shooting, the Knicks gradually mounted a comeback in the second half. The victory, which marked New York’s biggest comeback of the season, also improved their chances of making the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Near the end of the third quarter, the Knicks began to close the gap by accelerating play and pressuring the Warriors’ defence. Multiple turnovers were converted into crucial points, and the Madison Square Garden crowd fuelled the team’s intensity. In the tense final moments, Brunson’s leadership kept the team cohesive.
