Knicks’ grades from their 91-90 comeback win over the Celtics in Game 2 on Wednesday in Boston:
Jalen Brunson, B
Worst offensive game of the playoffs for the point guard, but guess what? He buried clutch buckets and the game-winning free throws. We’re now at the point of expecting nightly heroics from Captain Clutch.
Josh Hart, A
Dropped a team-high 23 points and was everywhere for the Knicks, grabbing rebounds and soaring for game-winning hustle plays.
Karl-Anthony Towns, B+
Kept the Knicks afloat in the first half when the rest of the roster was otherwise ice cold offensively. Finished with 21 points and 17 rebounds.
