A Jalen Brunson masterpiece was overshadowed by another late meltdown by the Knicks as the Milwaukee Bucks came from 17 points down to defeat New York 111-107 on Monday night at Madison Square Garden.
Brunson led the way for the Knicks with 44 points, seven rebounds and four assists in one of his best performances at any level of his basketball career.
However, after controlling the game for three quarters, the Knicks let the Bucks back into it in the fourth quarter. A quarter that saw Milwaukee outscore the Knicks by nine and close the game strong behind huge three-pointers from Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez.
