New York Knicks tied NBA playoff records for three-pointers made in the first quarter, first half and full game during a 144-114 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series on May 10, 2026. The win completed a sweep and advanced the Knicks to the Eastern Conference finals. Miles McBride led the shooting display with 6-of-7 from beyond the arc by halftime for 20 points.
The Knicks built a 43-24 lead after the first quarter by making 11 of 13 three-pointers at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. They extended the margin to 81-57 at halftime after tying the playoff first-half record with 18 makes. Jalen Brunson added four three-pointers, while Josh Hart made three, Karl-Anthony Towns hit both of his attempts and Landry Shamet sank three off the bench.
New York shot 57% from three-point range and 54% from the field overall, finishing with 25 makes to match the playoff single-game record. Jose Alvarado and Pacome Dadiet contributed in the second half as all starters rested to start the fourth quarter.
