A thrust in the third from Jalen Brunson served as the spark to a New York Knicks comeback against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Thousands of people in the South saw a bright object streaking across the sky Saturday night about 10 p.m. CT, moving generally from south to north. While the Ursid meteor shower is ongoing this weekend, this was more likely a piece of space debris breaking up in Earth's atmosphere.

Jalen Brunson scored 29 of his season-high 39 points in the second half for the visiting New York Knicks, who overcame a 14-point third-quarter deficit to beat the upset-minded New Orleans Pelicans 104-93 on Saturday.
