Knicks’ Game 3 report card: Persevered despite Jalen Brunson’s poor night

Knicks’ grades from their 106-100 Game 3 win over the Pacers on Sunday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse:

Jalen Brunson, D+

Dealt with foul trouble (again) and rampant poor decisions. He made one clutch shot in the fourth and airballed another. Finished 6-for-18 from the field but 10-for-10 from the line. Knocked down a pair of big free throws with seconds left. But overall, the Knicks won despite their captain.

Karl-Anthony Towns, A+

Strapped on his cape in the fourth quarter and single-handedly saved the Knicks season with 20 of his 24 points in that final period. If KAT hadn’t secured his Knicks moment yet, Sunday night was it.

OG Anunoby, B+

Active performance while finishing including a big block in the fourth quarter. Scored efficiently with 16 points on just nine shots in 37 minutes.
