Karl-Anthony Towns brings Knicks back to life in Game 3

The New York Knicks are back on track after an epic fourth-quarter performance by Karl-Anthony Towns in Game 3. Despite the Indiana Pacers having home-court advantage, Towns rallied the Knicks to a comeback victory.

Towns struggled in the first three period, only scoring four points, but ug down deep to come alive in the final period. Towns ended with a double-double of 24 points and 15 rebounds.

Before the fourth quarter, Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby and Mitchell Robinson tried to keep the Knicks alive in a hostile Indiana environment. Brunson scored 23 points, while Anunoby had an all-around game, putting up 16 points and three blocks. Robinson added 15 points and two steals.

Game 4 will be in Indiana, which means the Knicks will have to stay razor-sharp and hope they can tie the series on Tuesday.
