New York: So, you won’t believe what happened in the game last night! Jalen Brunson was on fire. He was all wrapped up in heating pads, keeping warm on a bike in the tunnel, just waiting for his moment.
When he finally got on the court, he really showed off. He scored a whopping 55 points, including nine in overtime, leading the Knicks to a comeback win against the Wizards.
At halftime, he only had 13 points, but after the break, he just exploded with 42 points! It was wild. Karl-Anthony Towns also had a solid game, putting up 30 points and grabbing 14 rebounds.
This win marks the Knicks’ seventh straight victory, and it was their first overtime game of the season. Justin Champagnie from Washington had a great night too, scoring a career-high 31 points with 10 rebounds.
Sure, it wasn’t the prettiest game ever, but for a Knicks team looking to secure a good spot in the East, sometimes you need these gritty wins.
