The Dallas Mavericks hosted the New York Knicks on Wednesday night, hoping to bounce back from a blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday night. They'd have to do it without their top three players, as Cooper Flagg (illness), Anthony Davis (left calf strain), and Kyrie Irving (ACL surgery recovery) were all out.

Brandon Williams was called for an offensive foul on what would have been a game-tying shot that forced overtime.

Jalen Brunson had a game-high 28 points in his return from a two-game absence, Landry Shamet scored a pair of 3-pointers in the final 1:02 and drew a crucial charging foul in the final second, and the Knicks beat the Dallas Mavericks 113-111.
