Hawks upset Knicks again

Atlanta's resurgence has been led by the veteran McCollum, who has stepped into the clutch role previously held by Trae Young.

The Knicks failed to get off a final shot as Jonathan Kuminga knocked the ball away from Jalen Brunson as time expired.

New York's offense struggled with three-point consistency, while Mikal Bridges was benched after a disappointing performance.

The series remains highly competitive as both teams prepare for a pivotal Game 4 in Atlanta on Sunday.
