Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks are hoping to finish off their first-round series against the Detroit Pistons this Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.

The Knicks staged a fourth-quarter comeback against the Pistons this past Sunday to take a 3-1 series lead. Brunson led his team with 32 points and 11 assists, but it was Karl-Anthony Towns who made two clutch shots in the final minutes of Game 4.

There’s no question Brunson and Towns will need to be at their best in order for the Knicks to win Game 5 at home. Of course, it’ll help that Tom Thibodeau’s squad will have home-court advantage.

Leading up to tipoff on Tuesday, a member of the Knicks City Dancers grabbed everyone’s attention on social media.
