NEW YORK ― Kelly Oubre Jr. blew a kiss to the Knicks’ bench following a three-pointer. Tyrese Maxey then sank another of his trademark floaters to give the Sixers a four-point lead with less than three minutes to play. And then Jalen Brunson went to work.

Jalen Brunson scored nine unanswered points late in the fourth quarter Wednesday night for the host New York Knicks, who squandered all of a 19-point lead before coming back to edge the skidding Philadelphia 76ers 110-105.

- After back-to-back rough showings in Cleveland and Boston, Mikal Bridges bounced back in a big way, putting together easily his best start of the season. He scored 19 of his 28 points during a stellar opening frame, which was the most he's recorded in a single quarter this season.

Jalen Brunson poured in a game-high 34 points on 8-of-17 shooting, once again delivering in crunch time to lift the Knicks to a 110-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers

As the lead was dwindling, the Knicks — already without Towns and Robinson — lost Hukporti for the remainder of the game after he tried to play the first 1:15 of the fourth after suffering a sprained left knee in the third quarter.

On Sunday afternoon, the New York Knicks lost to the Boston Celtics by a score of 118-105. They continue to struggle against the elite teams in the NBA. Via S
