NEW YORK -- The New York Knicks lost their first three games against the Milwaukee Bucks this season, but on Christmas Day, Jalen Brunson played like a man determined to prevent that streak from getting to four.
Brunson finished with 38 points, the most by a Knicks player on Christmas Day since Bernard King's record 60-point performance in 1984, to lead New York to a 129-122 victory over Milwaukee. The Knicks victory snapped the Bucks' seven-game winning streak
"We've struggled against this team throughout this year and the fact that we came out with a win today, it's special," Brunson said after the game.
