KNICKS 109 - PACERS 106

Julius Randle accounted for six free throws in the final minute to help push the Knicks to a 109-106 victory over the Indiana Pacers, and the club's seven consecutive victory overall. New York stands at a season high four-games over .500 at 17-13.

Randle finished with a double-double, 25 points, 14 rebounds in the victory. Jalen Brunson was once again fantastic on the glass, leading the way with 30 points. R.J. Barrett also contributed 24 points in the victory.

With 3:40 to go in the game the Knicks trailed Indiana 99-93 before Mitchell Robinson's two point shot began a New York rally.

Quinten Grimes nailed a 29-foot three pointer to bring New York to within one-point 99-98; and Brunson would follow a minute later with a three of his own to cut the Indiana lead down to three-points 104-101. Brunson finally hit a two-point shot with 1:21 to go, setting up the stage for Randle to ice it for New York at the charity stripe the rest of the way.
