The Knicks managed to extend the series on Thursday night, beating the Pacers 111-94 in Game 5 at Madison Square Garden. They were led by the clutch player of the year Jalen Brunson, who scored 32 points. The Knicks never trailed in Thursday’s game, leading from start to finish.

Per NBA on TNT, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson are now the first teammates to score 20+ points in the first five games of a Conference Finals since Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal.

The Pacers will have another opportunity to close the series out with a 3-2 lead, and this time it will be in front of their home fans. They will absolutely not want to come back to New York for a Game 7, so Saturday’s matchup is a must-win for both sides.

Below are the opening odds for Saturday’s Game 6 on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Knicks vs. Pacers Game 6 Odds
