Jalen Brunson had 39 points and 12 assists, and the New York Knicks moved a win away from their first Eastern Conference finals appearance in 25 years and pushed the defending champion Boston Celtics to the brink of elimination with a 121-113 victory Monday night in Game 4.

It happened late in the first quarter: Jalen Brunson attacked in transition, Hart cut baseline, and as Brunson delivered the pass, Hart elevated for a layup — only to take Luke Kornet’s elbow square to the face. He collapsed instantly, and Kornet immediately signaled to the Knicks bench.

Unbothered Kendall Jenner stuns in leather and strappy stilettos — and perhaps a chipped tooth — to sit courtside across from her A-list New York Knicks fan ex at recent game.

Derrick White had 34 points, including seven 3-pointers, to lead the Boston Celtics to a 127-102 Game 5 win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday night that kept them alive in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

The Celtics, playing without injured star Jayson Tatum, drained 22 three-pointers to notch their first win at home in the best-of-seven matchup. The Knicks still lead, 3-2. Jaylen Brown had a double-double of 26 points and 12 assists to lead Boston, while Josh Hart finished with 24 points and seven rebounds for New York.

Knicks fans, as loud and proud as ever, were easy to spot in their blue and orange jerseys in front of TD Garden ahead of Game 5.

The efforts of former New York Knicks stars helped thrust the Minnesota Timberwolves back into the Western Conference Finals.

The Boston Celtics were able to pull off a dominant Game 5 win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday night to keep their season alive. Even without superstar forward Jayson Tatum, who went down with a torn Achilles in Game 4, the Celtics looked the part of a team with championship experience.
