The Atlanta Hawks have claimed another New York Knicks playoff scalp, winning 109-108 in Game 3 on Friday AEST to take a 2-1 lead in a massive series swing. <\/p>\n

And while the Knicks rue \u201csevere\u201d late-game mismanagement in the past two games, a Hawks star\u2019s old team might be having trade regrets after he put in a brilliant off-the-bench shift. <\/p>\n

The Hawks led by as many as 18 points in the first half at State Farm Arena, but almost gave it away, trailing 105-108 with 1:03 remaining in the game after a piece of Jalen Brunson brilliance. <\/p>\n

A Jalen Johnson make with just under a minute left got Atlanta to within one, before veteran guard CJ McCollum hit the go-ahead mid-range jumper with 12.5 seconds remaining. <\/p>\n

The Hawks then played suffocating defence on the game\u2019s last possession, forcing a Jalen Brunson turnover as time expired. <\/p>\n

Bendigo\u2019s Dyson Daniels was industrious in the momentous win, scoring eight points but grabbing 13 rebounds, dishing six assists and notching three steals in an all-around performance. <\/p>\n

And coming off the bench, forward Jonathan Kuminga showed up for his new ball club, scoring 21 points on an uber-efficient 64 per cent field-goal shooting. <\/p>\n

The former Warrior\u2019s length and athleticism continue to make him a tough defensive proposition, while he was also ferocious on the glass. <\/p>\n

Kuminga also produced the result-sealing steal on Josh Hart with a few seconds remaining. <\/p>\n

Renowned NBA podcaster and writer Kevin O\u2019Connor wrote on X in reaction: \u201cI wonder what Steve Kerr is thinking watching Jonathan Kuminga go off for the Hawks in the playoffs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Atlanta traded with Golden State for Kuminga in February, affording the fledgling wing a fresh start after five years with the seven-time NBA champs. <\/p>\n

The 23-year-old has a team option for US$24.3 million (AU$34 million) next season, and he\u2019s putting his best foot forward right now to ensure the Hawks don\u2019t have a choice but to pick it up.<\/p>\n

Three days earlier, Kuminga dropped 19 points and four rebounds in New York as Atlanta claimed a Game 2 victory at Madison Square Garden. <\/p>\n

New York, meanwhile, licks its wounds as multiple examples of \u201csevere timeout mismanagement\u201d were called out, with the Knicks now looking to avoid a third-straight loss when the sides meet again in Atlanta on Sunday morning AEST. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Atlanta Hawks have claimed another New York Knicks playoff scalp, winning 109-108 in Game 3 on Friday…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":627066,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[574],"tags":[2620,2095,4131,7218,64,63,303907,726,303905,12840,800,145903,2105,3231,63704,18233,20516,303903,1025,1666,2041,2067,303904,303906,85,42307,58049,303908,303909,161649,2614,125392],"class_list":{"0":"post-627065","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-basketball","8":"tag-agence-france-presse","9":"tag-america","10":"tag-atlanta","11":"tag-atlanta-hawks","12":"tag-au","13":"tag-australia","14":"tag-ball-club","15":"tag-basketball","16":"tag-crucial-hand","17":"tag-dyson-daniels","18":"tag-espn-inc","19":"tag-field-goal-shooting","20":"tag-getty-images-inc","21":"tag-jack-jovanovski","22":"tag-kevin-c-cox","23":"tag-kevin-oconnor","24":"tag-madison-square-garden-lp","25":"tag-massive-series-swing","26":"tag-new-york","27":"tag-new-york-knicks","28":"tag-north-america","29":"tag-northern-america","30":"tag-playoff-scalp","31":"tag-result-sealing-steal","32":"tag-sports","33":"tag-state-of-georgia","34":"tag-steve-kerr","35":"tag-team-option","36":"tag-tough-defensive-proposition","37":"tag-trade-gamble","38":"tag-united-states-of-america","39":"tag-veteran-guard"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=627065"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627065\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/627066"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=627065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=627065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=627065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
