Jalen Brunson added 19 points and nine assists for New York, while Mikal Bridges hit a crucial 3-pointer with 27 seconds remaining to seal the win. Landry Shamet contributed 16 points for the Knicks, who shot 44.7% from the floor after overcoming an 18-point deficit in the fourth quarter.
Matas Buzelis led Chicago with 15 points, but the Bulls were missing guards Jaden Ivey and Anfernee Simons due to injuries. The Knicks were also without center Mitchell Robinson, who sat out for left ankle injury management.
