Jalen Brunson scored 34 points with seven assists, and Mikal Bridges added 28 as the New York Knicks edged the Philadelphia 76ers 110-105 on Wednesday night. OG Anunoby contributed 16 points and nine rebounds, while Josh Hart grabbed 17 boards to help the Knicks secure their fourth win in six games and 11th in their last 15.
Tyrese Maxey led the struggling Sixers with 30 points, though he shot just 12 of 32 and missed all 10 of his 3-point attempts. Paul George tallied 25 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists, while Kelly Oubre Jr. scored 27. Philadelphia, limited to just 45 points in the first half and 67 through 33 minutes, mounted a late rally, but it wasn’t enough to avoid their ninth straight loss. Maxey fueled the comeback with 17 points in the final 15 minutes.
