The end -of -part offensive in the Knicks is Jalen Brunson – he creates for everyone. This game was mainly ended with 1:20 to play in overtime when Brunson fell with a nasty rolled ankle. How bad? The knicks are optimistic, it’s “just” a sprain and not something worse, reports Chris HaynesAlthough it will take an MRI to confirm.
The Lakers came from 10 to the fourth quarter to gain extension, 113-109, in one of the most entertaining games of the season. It was the eighth consecutive victory of Los Angeles and 12th consecutive against teams on .500.
