Karl-Anthony Towns, Knicks Hold Off Bulls

Karl-Anthony Towns recorded his NBA-leading 39th double-double to help the Knicks overcome the Bulls' roster challenges and secure a 105-99 win in Chicago.

  • Sunday night in Chicago, the New York Knicks outlasted the Chicago Bulls 105-99 for back-to-back wins after Saturday's comeback over Houston.
  • Without Mitchell Robinson, the Bulls played without Jaden Ivey and Anfernee Simons and lost Jalen Smith to calf tightness after scoring 12 points before leaving, during the third quarter.
  • A six-point sequence by Karl-Anthony Towns, New York Knicks forward, came after Chicago took a 95-94 lead with 3:52 remaining, helping him total 28 points and 11 rebounds for his NBA-leading 39th double-double.
  • With the loss, the Bulls now extend their skid to nine straight, their longest since a 10-game slide in January 2019, and they host Charlotte on Tuesday night.
  • New York is 31-1 when leading after three quarters, and Landry Shamet scored 16 as the Knicks shot 44.7% in Saturday's comeback win, highlighting resilience despite depth questions.
