Despite Jalen Brunson’s impressive 33-point performance, the Knicks fell to the Magic 133-121 as their defense faltered in the fourth quarter, allowing Orlando to shoot 55% overall. The loss marked New York’s second straight defeat to the Magic this season, compounded by injuries to key players Miles McBride and Landry Shamet, leaving the Knicks with a disappointing 1-5 road record.
