It was all for naught, with a failed Jalen Brunson game-winner going in and out of the basket as time expired. But that game-winning attempt was only required after Josh Hart committed a foul on Coby White's three-point attempt with 3.2 seconds left. Chicago's fourth-year guard sunk all three free throws, and the rest is recent history.

Those types of injuries are bound to happen, and the Knicks, who are approaching their 10th game of the season Tuesday in Philly, haven’t looked equipped to deal with it.
