Knicks stun Cavs in comeback

The New York Knicks pulled off a historic 22-point comeback to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 115-104 in overtime to open the Eastern Conference Finals.

Jalen Brunson led the rally with 38 points, sparking a 30-8 run in the final eight minutes of regulation.

The Cavaliers, who appeared dominant for much of the game, struggled to contain Brunson's offensive onslaught and were plagued by turnovers in the closing minutes.

Game 2 is set for tonight at Madison Square Garden, where the Knicks will look to take a commanding 2-0 series lead.

Analysts suggest the Cavaliers must find a way to neutralize Brunson's impact if they hope to rebound from the devastating Game 1 collapse.
