Jalen Brunson was the hero in Game 6 as he scored a game-high 40 points – including the eventual game-winner – to lead the New York Knicks to a 116-113 win over the Detroit Pistons to advance to the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

The New York Knicks closed out their first-round series against the Detroit Pistons in dramatic fashion. In Game 6, New York withstood a furious Detroit comeback and pulled out a 116-113 series-clinching victory thanks to a clutch 3-pointer from Jalen Brunson in the final seconds of regulation.

The Knicks have traded off performing well offensively and not. They have scored 94 or fewer points in both playoff games after tallying 100 or more points the game prior. Having put up 103 in Game 5, New York is primed to disappoint. It was just 6-8 ATS as a road underdog as well.
