New York Knicks sharp shooter Jalen Brunson passes Kobe Bryant for the most fourth quarter points scored in the NBA playoffs.

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum tore his right Achilles tendon in the fourth quarter of Monday's Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks, and had surgery on Tuesday in New York City to repair the injury.

Johnny Jackson, after playing his senior season while going through chemotherapy, received a surprise invitation to Madison Square Garden from Knicks star Jalen Brunson.

Bryant twice scored 100 fourth-quarter points in his first 10 playoff games, back in 2001 and 2003, and then added a 99-point run to open the 2008 playoffs. Stephen Curry likewise scored 99 in the first 10 games of the 2023 playoffs, but Brunson's fourth-quarter scoring pace has moved him past those two legends.

The New York Knicks beat the Boston Celtics with Jalen Brunson leading the offense. He delivered an outstanding performance and drove the team forward. As a result, Brunson broke a playoff record previously held by Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant.
