It looked like the Knicks were finally in the clear. But they should have learned this lesson long ago. There is no “in the clear” when Trae Young looms. Their longtime nemesis nearly buried them once again.

Brunson will never forget the first chance he had to win a game. It's helped him make the clutch shots, including Wednesday against Atlanta.

The New York Knicks survived an overtime thriller against the Atlanta Hawks thanks to brilliant efforts from their All-Stars.

Karl-Anthony Towns followed up Tuesday's 40-point performance with a 44-point effort and Jalen Brunson had 36.

Jalen Brunson hit a late go-ahead jumper, Karl-Anthony Towns scored 44 points and the Knicks managed to squeak past the Hawks 149-148 in overtime to win the NBA's highest-scoring -- and perhaps its wildest -- game of the season.
