Josh Hart scored 33 points, his most since joining the Knicks three years ago, in a 136-110 victory over the Pacers. Despite playing just 26 minutes and missing the entire fourth quarter due to a neck strain, Hart was nearly perfect on all five of his 3s and overall shooting 12-for-13 overall. This marked the fourth consecutive win for the Knicks, their first without Jalen Brunson. Jose Alvarado, who made his first start with the franchise, also contributed significantly. The Knicks' only inefficient shooter was Mikal Bridges, who had only four points at the break.
