The Knicks pulled off the comeback after trailing by as much as 20 in the third quarter and nine to start the fourth, but held on in overtime to come away with a 108-105 Game 1 win over the Celtics in Boston on Monday night.

OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns all came up with big shots in the overtime period, which started with Bridges coming away with a key steal on Jayson Tatum.
