The Philadelphia 76ers had to throw the towel in early against the New York Knicks in Game 1.
Jalen Brunson and his team dominated from start to finish. For Brunson, he produced so much efficiently in his first 31 minutes of action that he was able to take an early night.
The star guard shot 12-18 from the field, 8-8 from the charity stripe, and 3-6 from deep to score 35 points. With that scoring total, Brunson improved his standing as the No. 1 Knicks player with 35-plus points in a single playoff game.
