Reggie Bullock and RJ Barrett combined on a defensive gem late in the game and the Knicks (7-8) held on for an 91-84 win over the Orlando Magic on Martin Luther King Jr. Day at Madison Square Garden.

Kevin Durant and James Harden are reunited once more as the Brooklyn Nets sent a haul of picks and players to land the eight-time All-Star. In a four-way deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers, Brooklyn sent Caris LeVert, Dante Exum, Rodions Kurucs, four first round picks — including the Cavs’ 2022 first-round pick …
