Utah made 11 of its first 13 3-pointers to take the early lead. Sensabaugh, Bailey, and Kevin Love teamed for seven 3s in the first 14 minutes. The Jazz finished 18 of 36 from 3-point range.

The Knicks cut it to single digits before halftime, then took the lead with a 20-4 run spanning the third and fourth quarters. Clarkson punctuated the run with back-to-back baskets to put the Knicks up 101-94 less than a minute into the fourth.

Clarkson scored or assisted on four baskets and added two free throws to fuel the go-ahead run. Brunson gave New York the lead for good on a 3-point play with 1.6 seconds left in the third, and the Knicks pushed the advantage to 22.
