Jalen Brunson led the New York Knicks (29-17) to a triumphant 125-109 win over the Miami Heat (24-22), securing their sixth consecutive victory.
Despite the absence of Julius Randle in the final minutes due to a shoulder injury, the Knicks showcased their strength, with Brunson’s outstanding performance of 32 points and eight assists leading the charge.
The Knicks’ winning streak has been particularly notable since the acquisition of OG Anunoby, who contributed 19 points to the team’s success against the struggling Heat.
Jimmy Butler’s noteworthy 28-point performance for the Heat was not enough to overcome the Knicks’ dominance, with the Heat suffering their sixth consecutive loss.
Despite a late surge from the Heat tying the game in the third quarter, the Knicks’ resilience and efficiency in the fourth quarter secured their victory.
