Jalen Brunson delivered one of the greatest performances in NBA Finals history, scoring 45 points to lead the New York Knicks to their first NBA championship since 1973.
The Knicks rallied from 16 points down to defeat the San Antonio Spurs, 94-90, in Game 5 and capture the third title in franchise history.
Brunson’s historic night included:
🔥 45 PTS
🔥 15 PTS in the 4th Quarter
🔥 NBA Champion
With the performance, Brunson tied Michael Jordan (Game 6, 1998) for the most points ever scored on the road in an NBA Finals-clinching game.
He also:
• Set a new Knicks franchise record for points in an NBA Finals game, surpassing Willis Reed’s previous mark of 38 points
• Joined Stephen Curry as the only players in NBA history with 45+ PTS and 4+ 3PM in a single NBA Finals game
• Joined Michael Jordan, Stephen Curry, Allen Iverson, and Jerry West as the only guards ever to score 45+ points in an NBA Finals game
Relive every bucket from Brunson’s legendary championship-clinching masterpiece as he delivers New York’s first NBA title in 53 years. 🏆🔥🗽
