Another Jalen Brunson masterclass helped the New York Knicks avoid a disaster against the lowly Washington Wizards over the weekend, as the captain's latest showcase was the key behind a 136-132 victory at Capital One Arena in the nation's capital.

Brunson did not score at all in the second quarter but erupted for 19 third-quarter points, plus another 14 in the fourth before scoring nine of the Knicks’ 17 points in overtime.

After the Magic stayed competitive for 2 ½ quarters, the Knicks finally created separation behind Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson and ran away.
