What to Know

Two dominant guards in Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. On Friday, the New York Knicks will fight it out against the Indiana Pacers in an Eastern Conference playoff contest at 7:00 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Knicks have been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last four games.

The Pacers are out to put a dent in the Knicks' postseason run, something the Pacers tried (and failed) to do on Wednesday. The Knicks came out on top against the Pacers by a score of 130-121. The win came about thanks to a strong surge starting at the 11:27 mark of the third quarter, when New York was facing a 75-63 deficit.

The Knicks' success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Brunson led the charge by scoring 29 points along with five assists and three steals. Brunson's evening made it six games in a row in which he has scored at least 30 points. Donte DiVincenzo was another key contributor, scoring 28 points along with six rebounds.

The Knicks are on top in this series right now, leading the Pacers 2-0. Check back on CBS Sports after the game to see if the Knicks can extend their lead or if the Pacers can make up some ground.
