What happened

Mike Brown pulled Mikal Bridges after a few third-quarter minutes and later sent Landry Shamet in at Bridges' spot when the starters returned.

Shamet, Josh Hart and OG Anunoby helped fuel New York's fourth-quarter surge, while Hart's foul trouble earlier forced extra bench minutes.

LINEUP CONTEXT

Bridges' shortened stint and Shamet's late substitution suggest Brown may keep adjusting the wing rotation if early-game production stays uneven.
