Knicks’ bench depth provided the ‘spark needed’ in Game 3 comeback win over Pacers

It was all hands on deck for the Knicks on Sunday night.

Tom Thibodeau doesn’t exactly stretch out his rotation very often, but the veteran head coach was forced to do so in Game 3 as New York found numerous key contributors in foul trouble early against the Pacers.

“A lot of guys stepped up for us,” Thibodeau said postgame.

New York was already working with a revamped rotation after bumping Mitchell Robinson into the starting lineup and Josh Hart to the bench for the first time in the playoffs.
