The Knicks stole it right back.

The 76ers came back from an eight-point fourth-quarter deficit to take a 101–96 lead in the game’s final minute. But chaos broke out in the game’s final seconds as the Knicks rallied for a wild 104–101 win and 2–0 series lead in the first round of the playoffs.

Frantic final minute secures Knicks win

New York had the ball and trailed by five with 32 seconds remaining. Donte DiVincenzo drove through the 76ers defense to the bucket, then kicked the ball to the left wing to Jalen Brunson. Brunson sidestepped Tyrese Maxey, then drained a 3-pointer to cut Philadelphia’s lead to 101–99.

The 76ers had the ball back with a two-point lead and the game clock at 27 seconds. But they couldn’t get the ball cleanly in bounds.

Tyrese Maxey couldn’t handle Kyle Lowry’s inbounds pass, and Josh Hart stole it from him. He kicked the ball out to DiVincenzo, who missed an open 3-pointer from the wing. But he was given another chance.

Isaiah Hartenstein secured the offensive rebound and found DiVincenzo for another look at a go-ahead 3. This time, DiVincenzo found the bottom of the net from the top of the key to secure a 102–101 lead.
