Karl-Anthony Towns poured in 37 points on Monday, Nov. 24, 2025, powering the New York Knicks past the Brooklyn Nets and stretching the Knicks’ mastery of the city rivalry to what the New York Post called a “historic” level.
The victory tightened the Knicks’ grip on the matchup and underscored Towns’ impact since arriving in New York. The All-Star big man set the tone early, then sealed the result with a flurry of late baskets as the Nets struggled to contain him.
Brooklyn never recovered from the Knicks’ fast start, falling behind for good in the second half. Each time the Nets threatened, Towns answered, finishing with a game-high 37 to keep the Knicks in front.
The win adds another chapter to the Knicks’ recent run of success against their cross-town rivals, a stretch the Post described as unprecedented in the history of the series.
