Game Recap
OG Anunoby's 29 points and 9 rebounds powered New York's offense, but it was not quite enough to overcome a late-game Atlanta stand. The Knicks fell 109–108 in a matchup that lived on either side of the market total of 214.5: the combined 217 points landed just 2.5 over the number, a narrow OVER that rewarded DAGGER's pregame lean despite a miss on the live call.
The game's rhythm shifted quarter by quarter. Atlanta opened hot with 33 points in Q1 against New York's 21, but the Knicks answered symmetrically in Q2, both teams scoring 25 and 29 respectively to keep the halves locked at 108 combined at intermission. The third quarter proved decisive for volume—60 combined points, the game's highest-scoring frame—with Atlanta (30) and New York (30) again trading evenly. The fourth quarter tightened dramatically to just 49 combined points, a 21-point Atlanta finish that held despite a 28-point New York push. Jalen Brunson added 26 points and 4 assists for the Knicks, while Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 21 points and a team-high 17 rebounds. For Atlanta, Jalen Johnson's 24 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists, paired with CJ McCollum's 23 points, kept the Hawks' offense humming through three quarters. The last frame's defensive clamp sealed a one-point finish in a season series where Atlanta and New York had traded three meetings ranging from 213 to 215 combined points.
