Knicks set for NBA Cup Semifinal meeting with Magic after win over Raptors

The Knicks are officially heading to Las Vegas.

New York booked their ticket to the NBA Cup Semifinals with their road win over the Raptors on Tuesday night.

Jalen Brunson led the way with 35 points, and the squad used a strong defensive second quarter to open a double-digit advantage that they never looked back from.

The Knicks will now face the Magic on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. with a trip to the NBA Cup Finals on the line.

Orlando beat the Miami Heat, 117-108, in the first Quarterfinals matchup Tuesday night.

New York has made it out of the group stage in all three years of the NBA Cup’s existence, but this will be their first time advancing to Vegas for the final four.

Standing in their way now is a pesky Magic squad, who they have lost to twice in three tries this season.

That lone victory, though, came with Karl-Anthony Towns sidelined this past weekend.
