The New York Knicks overturned a 20-point deficit as they fought back to beat the Indiana Pacers 106-100 in Game Three of the Eastern Conference Finals on Sunday.

The Knicks cut Indiana's lead to 2-1 in the series and after losing both games at their Madison Square Gardens they are now right back in the battle for a place in the NBA Finals.

Karl-Anthony Towns starred for the Knicks with 24 points -- 20 of them in an explosive fourth-quarter performance -- and contributed 15 rebounds as New York recorded their joint-largest comeback in a playoff game.

The Pacers must now regroup for Game Four on Tuesday having let a chance to take a commanding 3-0 lead slip from their grasp.

Jalen Brunson added 23 points but had five fouls and had to sit for stretches of the game, although the Knicks never let up when he was on the bench
