The Knicks defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 121-108 to move ahead 3-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals. Jalen Brunson scored 30 points, Mikal Bridges added 22, and Josh Hart contributed nine rebounds.

"If that was somewhat odd, what was entirely routine was the Knicks' brilliance, led by Brunson but also featuring players from the bench in a move that is becoming the hallmark of coach Mike Brown. "We have a bunch of individuals in that locker room who work really hard, and they're very psychotic about their work and things they do," Brunson said. "When their number's called and when it""
