The New York Knicks' miraculous 20-point comeback which resulted in a 108-105 overtime win over the Boston Celtics to take Game 1 was a team effort. It was Jalen Brunson knocking down back-to-back threes in the final minutes of regulation to give the Knicks the lead. It was Mikal Bridges, who made clutch plays on both ends of the floor to help secure the victory in overtime.

And certainly, it was Josh Hart, the Knicks' do-it-all wing whose energy and effort never wanes on the court. Brunson was sure to credit that effort which helped the Knicks erase a 20-point third-quarter deficit to win Game 1 on the road. He couldn't help but laugh at how he described Hart's game and how it impacts winning.
