New York reaches +13 in the first quarter and seems to be in control of the match, but in the fourth period San Antonio also puts its head ahead thanks to Keldon Johnson’s 26 points and the Knicks must win it again. The hosts manage to straighten the situation, but thanks to an imprudent 5-second infringement by Spurs on a throw-in with less than 6 seconds left for the final +3, with the guests unable to even take the last shot in time
New York’s defeat in San Antonio last week came thanks to the absence of Jalen Brunson, but this time the point guard is there and you can feel it: his 38 points are his new career high, scoring 17 of 27 shots attempted with 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Alongside him Julius Randle needs 26 shots (9 goals) to score 25 points, while Immanuel Quickley (15 points) and Quentin Grimes (14) continue their good form
