Jalen Brunson News, Rumors, Updates - New York Knicks

Sniffs double-double Brunson had 22 points (6-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds and nine assists in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 victory over the Heat.

Impact Brunson struggled with his shot Wednesday, but he thrived in the playmaking role while Karl-Anthony Towns carried New York's offense with a season-high 44-point effort. Brunson has been slumping with his shot over his last two games, shooting a combined 14-for-42 in that span, but that shouldn't worry fantasy managers. The star guard should bounce back sooner rather than later, although a slight decrease in his scoring figures to allow Towns to become the No. 1 option on offense might be due to happen.

Pops for 22 in opener Brunson racked up 22 points (9-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and two assists over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 132-109 loss to the Celtics.

Impact The point guard tied for the team lead in scoring with Miles McBride, but Brunson's low assist total was a sign the Knicks' new-look roster still needs some time to gel. The 28-year-old averaged a career-high 6.7 assists a game in 2023-24 before taking it up another notch with 7.5 a game during the playoffs, and the offseason additions of Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns should eventually lead to more distribution opportunities for Brunson.
