Report card from the Knicks’ title-winning 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Saturday night in San Antonio:

Jalen Brunson

No words necessary. 

Grade: A+ 

Karl-Anthony Towns

It was one of his worst, if not the worst, playoff games from Towns, who fell into foul trouble early and managed just two points on 1 of 7 shooting. He also fouled out after 23 minutes. Towns was lucky Brunson and the ‘Nova boys bailed him out in the championship closeout.
