Hawks Stun Knicks in Game 2

McCollum hit the go-ahead shot with 33.5 seconds remaining, completing a dramatic late surge that silenced the Madison Square Garden crowd.

The Knicks struggled in the final period, shooting just 22.7% as their fourth-quarter 'superpower' vanished at the worst possible time.

Mikal Bridges missed a potential game-winner at the buzzer, leaving New York fans frustrated by the team's collapse.

The series now shifts to Atlanta, with the Hawks gaining crucial momentum and home-court advantage.
