Karl-Anthony Towns had just four points in the first three quarters.
He erupted for 20 in the fourth quarter to power the fierce comeback.
This is the version of Towns the Knicks have been waiting for this whole series.
Andrew Nembhard finished a team-worst minus-7 and missed all three of his 3-point attempts.
He scored just nine points.
Miles McBride didn’t score before the fourth quarter, but then added nine down the stretch.
He played pivotal minutes with Jalen Brunson in foul trouble again.
