1. In a back-and-forth game that featured 16 lead changes, the Knicks caught fire in the third frame to create enough separation for the eventual 117-115 win over Utah. New York outscored Utah in the third period 36-23 as Courtney Lee and Tim Hardaway Jr. combined for 24 points. Hardaway Jr. continued to apply pressure to the home team in the fourth quarter when he completed a 4-point play to extend the Knicks lead to seven points. New York secured the important road win after three errant shots from the Jazz in the final seconds of play.
