The ball came to C.J. McCollum, who took two dribbles and threw up a prayer near halfcourt. The ball banked off the backboard and into the basket as the buzzer sounded.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fans at the State Farm Arena went wild as it appeared McCollum tied the game. However, officials reviewed the play and it was determined that the veteran guard got the ball out of his hands a little too late.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/nba\/new-york-knicks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York<\/a> won the game, 108-105.<\/p>\n<p>Knicks head coach Mike Brown explained why he didn\u2019t instruct the team to foul at the end instead of risking a possible game-tying scenario.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s tricky. If he misses it, obviously it\u2019s a long heave. But if you foul him on the rebound or you foul him when he\u2019s turning to heave it now they get three free throws,&#8221; he said, via the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2026\/04\/06\/sports\/jalen-brunson-delivers-late-game-brilliance-as-knicks-top-hawks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">New York Post<\/a>. &#8220;It\u2019s something we\u2019ve talked about before \u2014 it\u2019s still a toss-up situation. \u2026 The whole thing was at worst they\u2019ll tie it and we\u2019ll go to overtime. Lesson learned on a couple possessions down the stretch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Knicks star Jalen Brunson, who made two free throws to give the team a three-point lead with a second left to play, led the team with 30 points and 13 assists. Karl-Anthony Towns had 21 points, 12 rebounds and six assists.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/knicks-broadcasters-joke-comparing-bulls-obliterated-defense-iran-leaves-partner-stunned\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>KNICKS BROADCASTER&#8217;S JOKE COMPARING BULLS&#8217; &#8216;OBLITERATED&#8217; DEFENSE TO IRAN LEAVES PARTNER STUNNED<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was Atlanta\u2019s first home loss since early February, ending the team\u2019s 13-game home winning streak.<\/p>\n<p>Hawks guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker had 36 points in the loss. Jalen Johnson added 21 points and 11 rebounds, notching his 48th double-double of the season.<\/p>\n<p>New York and Atlanta could potentially meet in the postseason as they\u2019re jockeying for seeding ahead of the playoffs.
