Cleveland Cavaliers Vs Knicks Match Player Stats (126-110): Knicks Survive Mitchell’s Third-Quarter Blitz

The Cleveland Cavaliers Vs Knicks match player stats from their Christmas Day NBA clash on Thursday 25 December 2025 at Madison Square Garden delivered one of the most extraordinary late comebacks of the season, as the New York Knicks rallied from 17 points down in the fourth quarter to claim a breathtaking 126-124 victory through a Jalen Brunson three-pointer with just over a minute remaining — completing a comeback that had the Garden crowd in scenes of disbelief at one of basketball’s most celebrated annual showcases.

Donovan Mitchell delivered a staggering 34-point, 7-rebound, 6-assist performance — including 10 points in the opening period to stake Cleveland to an 18-3 early lead — yet it was not enough to prevent the Cavaliers blowing a 17-point fourth-quarter advantage in a manner that will have haunted the Cleveland locker room for days afterwards.

For the Knicks, Brunson’s 34 points and Jordan Clarkson’s scintillating 25 off the bench were the catalysts for a festive triumph that extended their Christmas Day winning streak to three consecutive years.
