The Indiana Pacers are two wins away from the 2025 NBA Finals.
Indiana defeated the New York Knicks 114-109 in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals at Madison Square Garden Friday night.
In another game that went to the wire, the Pacers once again found a way to seal the victory — they are now 7-0 in clutch games this postseason.
Jalen Brunson found Josh Hart to cut Indiana’s lead to one with 14.2 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Brunson then fouled Pacers guard Aaron Nesmith, who knocked down two free throws before Brunson missed a deep 3-pointer resulting in a Myles Turner rebound and two more Indiana free throw makes.
Pascal Siakam led Indiana with a playoff career-high 39 points, while Tyrese Haliburton added 14 points and 11 assists. Brunson had 36 points and 11 assists for New York. Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges each scored 20 apiece.
