The New York Knicks aren't just winning—they're making history. In their decisive sweep of the Philadelphia 76ers, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson reached new NBA Playoffs record heights, cementing their status as one of the most dominant duos in the league.
Game 4 was a masterclass in control. The Knicks demolished the 76ers 144-114, closing out the series with authority after earlier wins by 51 and 30 points. Towns, despite playing just 20 minutes, was everywhere. He finished with 17 points on an efficient 71.4% shooting from the field and 67% from three-point range, adding 10 assists and two steals. That stat line wasn't just impressive—it was record-breaking.
Towns now shares the Knicks' playoff record for the third-most consecutive games with six or more assists, tied with Brunson. He's just one game away from passing Maurice Cheeks for second place on that list. If the Knicks keep rolling, Towns could eventually challenge Walt Frazier's franchise record of 11 straight games with six-plus assists. Across the entire 2026 NBA Playoffs, Towns ranks second in total assists, trailing only Cade Cunningham.
Brunson was equally unstoppable. In 28 minutes, he dropped 22 points on 47% shooting and 60% from deep, along with six assists and four rebounds. But the most staggering stat? His plus-minus of +162 is the highest in the 2026 postseason. The two closest competitors are his own teammates: Josh Hart (+145) and Towns (+135). That's a testament to just how dominant the Knicks have been as a unit.
With this kind of firepower, the Knicks aren't just winning series—they're building a legacy. And if you're looking to channel that same winning energy, our collection of Knicks-inspired gear has you covered for every playoff push.
