What a game from the Garden. Perhaps the best playoff games ever played. A preposterous comeback (once again) by the Indiana Pacers closed a 14-point New York Knicks lead in the last three minutes. It all culminated in this incredible game-tying shot:
After seven lead changes in overtime alone, Obi Toppin ($3,600, 22.5 FPTS) sealed the game with this dunk:
Tyrese Haliburton ($10,600, 57 FPTS) clutched up as usual for the Pacers, posting 31 points and 11 assists on top of his crazy game-tying shot. Aaron Nesmith ($6,000, 42 FPTS) keyed their comeback by scoring 30 points and hitting eight threes.
Jalen Brunson ($11,000, 48.75 FPTS) was his usual excellent self, scoring 43 points. Unfortunately, his heroics weren’t enough for New York. Karl-Anthony Towns ($9,800, 60 FPTS) also balled out with 35 points and 12 rebounds, but will be up at night thinking about the tying three-pointer he missed. Josh Hart ($8,800, 36.75 FPTS) did Josh Hart things with eight points, 13 rebounds, and seven assists.
Game 2 will be played in New York on Friday, May 23rd at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time. New York opens as a -5.5 favorite on the DraftKings Sportsbook. The over/under is set at 227.
