SALT LAKE CITY — The Knicks appeared to be suffering another meltdown, as they let a 10-point lead in the final two minutes dwindle to three.
But the Knicks escaped Utah with a 117-115 victory over the Jazz as speculation about Jeff Hornacek’s job security became a topic.
With the Knicks up 115-112, the Jazz had three chances to tie the score with under 30 seconds to go. All three were on the same possession.
Donovan Mitchell missed an off-balance three-pointer, but Utah got the rebound. Joe Johnson missed a corner three-pointer, but Utah got the rebound.
