Everything was coming up Knicks on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, as New York kept their title hopes alive with a 111–94 win over the Pacers. The series now heads back to Indianapolis for Game 6 with Indiana holding onto a 3–2 lead.
It was once again the dynamic scoring duo of Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns who led the way for the Knicks—and as they did so, they accomplished a rare feat. With Brunson's 32 points and Towns's 24, they became the first set of teammates to score 20-plus points in each of the first five games of a conference finals since 2002.
