Knicks Rally from 20 Down to Stun Celtics in Overtime Thriller, Seize Home Court Advantage

The New York Knicks staged a thrilling comeback on Monday night, erasing a 20-point deficit to defeat the Boston Celtics in overtime, securing a dramatic victory that shifts the momentum in their favor as they take control of home court advantage in the series.

Led by the relentless play of Jalen Brunson, the Knicks showed immense resilience and poise under pressure. Brunson, known for his clutch performances, orchestrated a second-half rally that stunned the Celtics and lit up Madison Square Garden with energy and belief. Although the spotlight often shines on the team’s star guard, it was a collective effort that propelled the Knicks past the heavily favored Celtics.

OG Anunoby was particularly instrumental in the victory, delivering a stellar performance on both ends of the court. He poured in 29 points, knocking down six three-pointers, while also contributing four rebounds and four assists. Anunoby’s timely shooting kept the Knicks within reach during Boston’s strong start, and his continued aggression fueled the team’s push to even the score.

 

The Celtics, who had been dominant early, looked to be in full control as they built a commanding 20-point lead. Jayson Tatum appeared to be steering his team toward a comfortable win, finishing with 23 points, a monster 16 rebounds, six assists, two steals, and four made three-pointers. His all-around game kept the Celtics in the fight, especially as the Knicks began to claw back late in the third quarter.

 

Despite Boston’s early control, the momentum shifted dramatically as New York tightened up defensively and began to string together stops. The Knicks ramped up their physicality, and the Celtics struggled to adjust as their offensive rhythm stalled. The fourth quarter saw the Knicks chip away at the lead possession by possession, eventually tying the game in the final minutes to force overtime.

 

In the extra period, it was the Knicks who took command. Brunson continued to lead with confidence, while Anunoby and other key contributors stepped up with big shots and defensive plays. The home crowd was electric, feeding off every moment as the Knicks sealed the comeback and took the series lead.

 

This win is more than just a single-game victory for the Knicks—it represents a statement. Down by 20 and facing a potential home loss, they responded with heart and toughness, two traits that have defined their season. With the series momentum now swinging in their favor, the Knicks have put themselves in a strong position moving forward.

 

Meanwhile, the Celtics will have to regroup. While Tatum delivered a strong individual performance, Boston’s inability to close out the game after building such a large lead will surely be a point of focus in the days ahead. They’ll need to make adjustments to avoid similar collapses, especially with the series now shifting in terms of psychological and logistical advantage.

 

Ultimately, it was a night that highlighted the unpredictability and excitement of playoff basketball. The Knicks’ stunning rally, capped by their overtime dominance, showcased their depth, tenacity, and growing confidence. With home court advantage now in hand, New York has sent a clear message: they are not backing down, and they believe this series is theirs for the taking.
