The New York Knicks will welcome the Indiana Pacers to Madison Square Garden on Thursday, May 29, for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals.

The Indiana Pacers bounced back in Game 4, with Tyrese Haliburton making his historic 32-point, 15-assist, 12-rebound triple-double with zero turnovers, leading the series 3-1. Backed by Pascal Siakam’s 30 points and Obi Toppin’s clutch shooting, the Pacers responded strongly with a 130-121 victory after a tough loss in Game 3.

Conversely, despite strong outings from Jalen Brunson (31 points) and Karl-Anthony Towns (24 points), the Knicks again lost momentum after a significant 106-100 win in Game 3. OG Anunoby contributed 22 points, but the Knicks battled back late and couldn’t contain the Pacers’ offense. And the Knicks are just one loss away from elimination.

The Upcoming matchup between the Knicks and the Pacers will be high intensity as the Knicks will fight to extend the series at home. Jalen Brunson will likely lead their offensive charge, while Karl-Anthony Towns aims to provide consistent scoring and rebounding, supported by OG Anunoby.

Meanwhile, the Pacers will focus on their most consistent player, Tyrese Haliburton, to control the pace and create opportunities for his teammates. They will look to capitalize on their momentum. The outcome will hinge on execution in the fourth quarter and each team’s ability to limit turnovers.
