It looked like the game would end easily like this, but it wasn’t. Brooklyn, which has reorganized its battle lines, has narrowed the gap in the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter alone, he scored 40 points to chase.
The score, which was 108-116 with 3:18 remaining, narrowed to 119-121 with 1:03 remaining.
In the end, Dennis Schroder made a 3-pointer with 12 seconds left to turn the game around 122-121.
The fixer was Jaylen Brunson. After receiving a pass from 45 degrees to the left in the final presentation, he tried to shoot a three-point shot with the opponent’s defense in front of him when he couldn’t find a place to pass, but was sucked into the rim.
Brooklyn attempted a layup after Schroder broke through with one second left in the final period, but Mikal Bridges blocked it and kept New York’s victory.
Brunson scored 37 points, OG Anunobi scored 25 points, and Bridges scored 22 points to lead the team’s offense.
Main center Carl-Anthony Towns left with a knee injury, but led 45-37 in the rebounding showdown.
Brooklyn is 5-8. Cam Thomas scored 43 points, Camero Johnson scored 17, Dorian Finney-Smith scored 15, and Schroder scored 14, but failed to prevent the loss.
