A New York Knicks dancer was drawing all sorts of attention during Game 4 of their series vs. the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday.

The Knicks blew the Sixers out by 30 on the day, sending them home at the very first opportunity with a 4-0 sweep while punching their ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals.

They can afford to relax somewhat and await the winner of the series between the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers.

While they were taking care of business on the floor, Julia Race, one of their cheerleaders, was turning heads.

Race, a Pace University alum, became a sensation on Sunday.

New York Knicks Set Playoff Record In Blowout Win

As for the Knicks, they set an NBA playoff record with 25 made threes on Sunday.

Miles McBride enjoyed a breakout game, scoring 25 points and hitting seven threes. He drained four in a row in the first quarter to keep the Philly crowd in check.

Jalen Brunson proved to be the force he’s been since that move from Dallas, scoring 22 points as he controlled the pace of the game.

Josh Hart and Karl-Anthony Towns both scored 17.

The Knicks dropped 11 threes in the opening quarter to tie a playoff record and take a 20-6 lead, setting the tone for what would be an easy 144-114 win.

There’s now a feeling that this might finally be their year.

Of course, they will have to get through Detroit or Cleveland. The defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder are also very much alive in the West and could close out their series vs. the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night.

The San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves would also be major threats if either of them made it out.
