Struggles in loss Brunson supplied 14 points (5-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 108-100 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Brunson's 14 points were his fewest since Nov. 17. While the 28-year-old guard struggled with his efficiency against Atlanta, he is still posting 49.1/42.9/82.3 shooting splits this season. Brunson's average of 7.8 assists per contest in 2024-25 is also a career high.

Double-doubles Monday Brunson logged 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-5 FT), four rebounds and 11 assists in 35 minutes during Monday's 113-108 win over Toronto.

Impact Brunson reached the 20-point mark for the fourth straight game and has also notched double-digit dimes in his last two contests. He appears to have taken a back seat to Karl-Anthony Towns as the Knicks' go-to player on offense in recent weeks, but the star floor general is more than capable of taking over on any single game if called upon duty. Brunson is averaging 22.4 points and 7.8 assists per game since the beginning of December.

Cleared to return Brunson (ankle) checked back in to Monday's game against the Raptors, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brunson made a quick stop to the locker room after appearing to hurt his ankle while tripping over a fan sitting courtside, but he managed to avoid a significant injury. He'll check back in with a little under seven minutes to go in the fourth quarter.

Walks to locker room Brunson was spotted heading to the locker room after stepping on the foot of a fan sitting courtside, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.

Impact Brunson looked to be walking without any sign of a limp on his way to the locker room at the end of the third quarter, but he made his way to the back slowly. The location and extent of his injury is unclear at this time.

Big double-double in loss Brunson chipped in 31 points (11-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-9 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and one steal across 44 minutes during Saturday's 120-111 loss to the Pistons.

Impact Brunson stepped up for the Knicks with running mate Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) sidelined Saturday, but his third 30-point, 10-assist double-double of the season wasn't enough as New York fell to the Pistons. Over his last 10 contests, Brunson is averaging 26.8 points, 8.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 3.4 three-pointers per game while shooting a sizzling 51.5 percent from beyond the arc. The superstar guard would figure to do the heavy lifting as the top option on offense if Towns is unable to return for Monday's favorable matchup against Toronto, a team that ranks 25th in the NBA in points allowed per game (117.4).

Good to go Saturday vs. Detroit Brunson (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Brunson was a game-time decision for Saturday's game due to a lower back contusion, but he was cleared to play after going through pregame warmups. Brunson will have to take on a larger scoring role due to Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) and Cameron Payne (elbow) both being ruled out.

Iffy for Saturday vs. Detroit Brunson (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Brunson is dealing with a lower back contusion and is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. If the star point guard is ruled out, Miles McBride and Tyler Kolek are candidates for an uptick in playing time. Over his last five outings, Brunson averaged 25.8 points, 6.2 assists and 2.8 rebounds across 30.6 minutes per game.

Scores 24 points in comfortable win Brunson notched 24 points (6-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 125-101 win over Charlotte.

Impact Karl-Anthony Towns and OG Anunoby led the way for the Knicks offensively in this 24-point blowout win, but Brunson's performance stood out due to his efficiency. The star floor general missed only two of his eight shots from the field and was particularly locked in from three-point range. Even though Towns has been the Knicks' go-to player on offense in recent weeks, Brunson remains a player worth trusting to deliver elite numbers across all formats. He's averaging 24.9 points, 8.7 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game across his last 10 appearances.

Goes for 21 points Tuesday Brunson had 21 points (8-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 121-106 victory over Orlando.

Impact Karl-Anthony Towns led the way in scoring and Josh Hart stood out with 10 assists, but Brunson still posted a solid stat line across the board. Even though his peripheral stats weren't eye-popping, the star guard at least managed to reach the 20-point mark for the seventh time in his last eight contests. His prominent role on offense is not under any threat, but he's been playing as the No. 2 option in recent weeks due to the impressive stretch Karl-Anthony Towns is going through. Even in that scenario, Brunson is averaging a team-high 26.2 points, to go along with 8.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds, per game over his last 10 contests.

Impact Brunson led all players in Friday's contest in scoring, connecting on a team-high mark from three while handing out a team-leading assist total in an offensive outburst.

Ties season-high scoring mark Brunson chipped in 37 points (14-21 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 129-114 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Brunson had one of his most efficient performances of the season from a scoring perspective, but it wasn't enough to complete the comeback. The star floor general delivered an impressive stat line despite the outcome of the game, however, matching his highest scoring mark of the season and notching his fifth game with at least 30 points in 2024-25. Brunson is averaging a robust 26.4 points, 8.5 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game since the beginning of November.

Impact Sure, OG Anunoby scored a career-high 40 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had a dominant effort while matching up with Nikola Jokic. However, Brunson's impressive performance in Monday's rout of the Nuggets can't be overlooked. The star floor general established a new career-high mark in assists, and the Knicks tied a franchise record with 45 dimes as a whole in Monday's win. This was Brunson's fourth game with double-digit assists across his last five appearances, and he's taking a leap forward as a playmaker of late. He's averaging 25.6 points and 8.6 assists per game since the beginning of November.
