Knicks vs. 76ers score: Jalen Brunson leads New York to Game 6 win, ending wild series and Philly’s season
The New York Knicks are moving on in the 2024 NBA playoffs, ousting the Philadelphia 76ers with a 118-115 win in Game 6 on Thursday night. It was a fitting end to a crazy back-and-forth series. The Knicks were led by Jalen Brunson’s 41 points, and the New York guard made multiple clutch shots in the fourth quarter to help secure the series-clinching win. Josh Hart’s 3-pointer with 24 seconds left gave the Knicks a 3-point lead that they did not relinquish.
Joel Embiid had another monster stat line for the 76ers, scoring 39 points with 13 rebounds. Buddy Hield and Nico Batum combined for 36 points off the Sixers’ bench and hit nine 3-pointers. Tyrese Maxey, after his heroics in Game 5, had a quieter night with 17 points.
The Knicks jumped out to a 22-point lead in the first quarter, but the Sixers erased the deficit before halftime as Hield caught fire off the bench. The Knicks then led 109-101 with three minutes left, but the Sixers rallied again and Maxey tied the game at 111-11 before Josh Hart’s clutch triple.
The Knicks advance in the 2024 NBA playoff bracket to face the sixth-seeded Indiana Pacers in the second round.
