The New York Knicks produced a stunning comeback to claim a first win in their NBA Eastern Conference play-off finals against the Indiana Pacers.
Defeat would have left the Knicks 3-0 down in the seven-game series, but New York – who were 20 points down towards the end of the second quarter – now only trail 2-1.
Karl-Anthony Towns starred with 20 points in the fourth quarter to snatch a crucial 106-100 victory.
With his side trailing 80-70 at the end of the third quarter, Towns – who played fewer than 28 minutes in game two – scored 15 points in the first four minutes of the quarter before adding a further five.
“When I got a chance to do what I do in the fourth, I was going to make sure I seized the opportunity,” Towns said.
