The New York Knicks were defeated by the Boston Celtics 115-93 in the NBA playoffs after two prior comeback victories. Boston established a significant lead early on, with impressive shooting from three-point range, finishing the game with 20-for-40 from beyond the arc, and a strong performance from Payton Pritchard, who scored 23 points. The Knicks’ Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 27 and 21 points respectively, but the latter suffered a potential finger injury, raising concerns about his availability in upcoming games.
