Knicks' Mikal Bridges Shines in Game 4 Win Over Pistons

Mikal Bridges struggled offensively for most of Game 4 against the Detroit Pistons, shooting just 1-for-10 through the first three quarters, but delivered two crucial three-pointers in the fourth quarter that sparked the New York Knicks’ comeback for a 94-93 win. Despite his shooting woes, Bridges made significant defensive contributions, disrupting key Pistons players and picking up multiple steals. He credited his teammates, especially Cameron Payne, for keeping him focused and confident, with vocal encouragement and accountability helping him stay aggressive. Bridges acknowledged the difficulty of missing shots but emphasized the team's support as a major factor in his ability to make clutch plays. Through four playoff games, his overall averages remain solid, particularly on defense, and his continued performance will be important as the Knicks look to close out the series in the next game. The victory puts New York in a strong position to advance to the second round of the playoffs.
