In Game 2 on Tuesday, the New York Knicks received significant contributions from their three stars, defeating the Miami Heat 111-105 in a thrilling down-to-the-wire match to level their second-round series at 1-1.
Despite trailing for a considerable portion of the game, as the Heat played without Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, and Victor Oladipo, the Knicks demonstrated the fight and resilience they have displayed all season long, sparking a fourth-quarter rally to secure the win. They outscored Miami 60-51 in the second half after entering halftime trailing by three.
Jalen Brunson emerged as the star of the show once again, carrying the Knicks late in the fourth quarter to propel them to victory.
