Knicks Take 2-0 Lead in East Semifinals with Brunson's Return
Brunson's 30 Points Help Knicks Beat Pacers
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson made a strong return from a foot injury on Wednesday, scoring 30 points to lead his team to a 105-94 victory over the Indiana Pacers in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series.
Brunson, who missed Game 1 with a sprained ankle, shot 10-of-19 from the field and 5-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also dished out five assists and grabbed three rebounds.
Knicks' Solid Performance
The Knicks took a commanding 2-0 lead in the series with the win, thanks to a strong all-around performance. RJ Barrett added 20 points, while Julius Randle contributed 17 points and 11 rebounds. Mitchell Robinson also had a solid game, finishing with 11 points and 11 rebounds.
The Pacers were led by Tyrese Haliburton's 23 points, but they couldn't keep up with the Knicks' offensive firepower. Indiana shot just 41.1% from the field compared to the Knicks' 49.2%.
The Knicks will look to take a 3-0 lead in the series when they host the Pacers in Game 3 on Friday.
