King James\u2019 historic night to forget; Aussie star produces monster performance \u2013 NBA Wrap<\/a><\/p>\nKNICKS CONTINUE STUNNING TURNAROUND AS STAR DUO DOMINATES<\/p>\n
The defending champions have continued their impressive turnaround after a nightmare start to the season, winning five of their past six games following three straight losses to open their campaign.<\/p>\n
Coming up against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the New York Knicks once again turned to their star duo of Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, who both delivered monster performances.<\/p>\n
Towns finished with 29 points, 13 rebounds and three assists, whilst Brunson added 31 points, nine assists and six rebounds in another impressive display.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
After a tight opening quarter, the Knicks took control in the second, building a 10-point lead heading into halftime that proved too much for the Cavaliers to overcome.<\/p>\n
Cleveland entered the contest coming off a strong victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, but were unable to back it up against a Knicks side that has found its form in recent games.<\/p>\n
Donovan Mitchell was one of the few bright spots for the Cavaliers, finishing with 37 points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals.<\/p>\n
The victory sees the Knicks climb to fifth in the Eastern Conference after their slow start, whilst the Cavaliers fall to 5-5 on the season and drop to seventh in the standings.<\/p>\n
NUGGETS OVERCOME FURIOUS PACERS RALLY<\/p>\n
Denver star Nikola Jokic scored 19 points and grabbed 13 rebounds as the Nuggets held off Indiana\u2019s second-half surge to triumph 114-102 in the NBA\u2019s Mexico City game.<\/p>\n
Three-time NBA Most Valuable Player Jokic added eight assists, coming up just shy of a triple-double.<\/p>\n
Cameron Johnson added 18 points and Jamal Murray chipped in 16 for the Nuggets, who saw a 27-point lead sliced to seven midway through the fourth quarter but held on for the victory before a sellout crowd of more than 20,000 at Mexico City\u2019s Arena CDMX.<\/p>\n
Indiana\u2019s Pascal Siakam led all scorers with 23 points.<\/p>\n
The league headed south of the border for its 16th regular-season contest in Mexico.<\/p>\n
Along with 19 pre-season games, the country has hosted the most NBA games outside of the United States and Canada.<\/p>\n
The Pacers, again playing without injured Tyrese Haliburton, jumped to a quick 5-0 lead and were up 7-4 when the Nuggets produced a 10-0 scoring run to seize a lead they wouldn\u2019t relinquish.<\/p>\n
Denver pushed the advantage to as many as 27 on the way to a 64-41 halftime edge.<\/p>\n
The Pacers hit back with a 37-point third quarter and pulled within 102-95 on a Jarace Walker running basket with 7:27 remaining.<\/p>\n
The Nuggets responded with a quick basket from Spencer Jones and a thunderous Aaron Gordon dunk as they kept the Pacers at bay.<\/p>\n
