Knicks Charge Back From 20 Down
- The New York Knicks rallied from a 20-point deficit in the second quarter to secure a 106-100 win over the Indiana Pacers in the third matchup of the Eastern Conference finals on May 25, 2025, in Indianapolis.
- The Knicks faced this challenge due to trailing multiple times early and their star, Jalen Brunson, sitting out much of the second half with five fouls, forcing Karl-Anthony Towns to step up.
- Towns, despite a sore knee, scored 24 points including 20 in the fourth quarter and grabbed 15 rebounds, while Brunson contributed 23 points despite foul trouble, helping seal the Knicks' rally.
- Towns described the comeback as “a true test when you’re down 20-plus” that required a “never-say-die attitude,” and coach Tom Thibodeau emphasized the team’s unselfish play as critical to the win.
- The victory cut the Knicks’ series deficit to 2-1, marked their third consecutive road win in a topsy-turvy series, and set up Game 4 for Tuesday night back in Indianapolis.
