Jalen Brunson and the Comeback Knicks did it again and now they're the Champion Knicks, beating San Antonio Spurs 94-90 in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
It secured New York a 4-1 series win and their first NBA title in 53 years.
Brunson scored 45 points, including 13 straight for New York in the fourth quarter on Saturday night (Sunday AEST).
The Knicks have overturned double-digit deficits in all four of those victories. The deficit was 16 on Saturday night but Brunson and the Knicks were never fazed.
Brunson, fittingly, closed with a flourish. He set a Knicks record for points in a finals game; it had been 38 by Willis Reed against the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 3 of the 1970 series.
