After a wild Game 1 overtime victory, the Knicks will attempt to take a 2-0 lead when they face the Cavaliers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Knicks rallied from a 22-point deficit in the fourth quarter of Game 1 to beat the Cavs, completing one of the greatest postseason comebacks in NBA history. Jalen Brunson scored 15 of his 38 points in the fourth quarter, leading New York to its eighth straight playoff win.
Donovan Mitchell had a team-high 29 points for the Cavs, but he scored just three points in the fourth quarter and overtime. James Harden, who was repeatedly targeted by Brunson late in the game, finished with more turnovers (six) than field goals (five). Cleveland will need more from its backcourt duo if it wants to steal Game 2 on the road.
