Play all audios:


_Knicks’ grades from their 111-94 Game 5 win over the Pacers on Thursday at the Garden:_ JALEN BRUNSON, A Efficient scoring and just an overall smart game from the point guard, who dropped


32 points on 12-for-18 from the field with five assists and orchestrated an offense that shot roughly 50 percent overall. KARL-ANTHONY TOWNS, A- Was questionable before the game with a knee


contusion but logged a team-high 36 minutes and was aggressive throughout. He had 24 points with 13 boards and showed a much-needed killer instinct. Turnovers (4) were still a problem,


though. MIKAL BRIDGES, A- Two days after getting torched by Tyrese Haliburton, Bridges held the Pacers star to a church-mouse quiet eight points on just seven shot attempts. Locked him down.
