Game Recap
Brandon Ingram's 31-point performance led Toronto, but it wasn't enough to overcome New York's balanced attack in a game that fell well short of expectations. The Knicks' trio of Jalen Brunson (26 points, 10 assists), Karl-Anthony Towns (21 points, 12 rebounds), and OG Anunoby (15 points) powered a 111-95 victory that saw the combined total finish at 206—a decisive 15.5 points under the 221.5 market line. DAGGER leaned under pregame, and it cashed.
The game's trajectory told the story. New York and Toronto traded blows early, combining for 63 points in the first quarter, then matched that output again in the second quarter at 63 combined—a 126-point first half that suggested a potential shootout. The Raptors' RJ Barrett (20 points) and Scottie Barnes (14 points) kept Toronto competitive through the half, but the second half proved decisive. Combined scoring cratered to just 80 points across the final two quarters, with the third quarter yielding only 43 combined points and the fourth just 37. That sharp defensive tightening—particularly in the fourth, where the Knicks held Toronto to 13 points—sealed the under and locked in a lopsided margin despite Toronto's offensive punch early on. The result marked another blowout in a season series where New York has consistently dominated, reinforcing the Raptors' recent struggles on the road.
