Phoenix—Jalen Brunson’s eighth 3-point try for the night appeared slightly off target, hitting the side of the rim, bouncing around, and eventually finding its way through. The sixth-year guard’s impressive shooting streak made the shooter’s roll almost appear unfair. He made it anyway.

“They made shots and just got hot and aggressive,” Suns star Kevin Durant said. “They killed us in the pick and roll and that was the game.”

At the midpoint of the third quarter, the Suns held a 10-point lead, but they finished with a 99-97 advantage as they entered the fourth. Brunson played a pivotal role in keeping the Knicks in contention, scoring 19 points in the quarter with a perfect 7-for-7 shooting, including five 3-pointers.
