Knicks vs. Hawks score: Live NBA playoff updates as Julius Randle, New York try to even series in Atlanta

The first-round series between the No. 4 New York Knicks and No. 5 Atlanta Hawks continues Sunday afternoon with Game 4. Atlanta can secure a commanding 3-1 lead with another win at home after taking Game 3 on Friday. Julius Randle will try to get going after struggling mightily through the first three games. The Hawks grab control in the third quarter and take a 88-71 lead into the fourth.

To say Randle is having a rough postseason debut would be an understatement. For the series, the Knicks All-Star is averaging 14.7 points and shooting an abysmal 24 percent from the field. In contrast, Randle averaged 37 points on 58 percent shooting in three regular-season games against Atlanta. It’s only a matter of time before he regains his form. On the other side, Trae Young has put up nearly 28 points per game along with 10.3 assists, and can help his Hawks win both home games against the Knicks and move one win away from advancing.
