Jalen Brunson has been a prominent point guard for the New York Knicks. Brunson is known for his speed and mobility which helped him to create space and contest the shots more efficiently. Additionally, his ball-handling serves him in getting by the defenders and pulling up for easy jumpers.
In the 2022 offseason, Brunson signed a lucrative deal with the New York Knicks, the deal kept the guard for four years for $106 million with a player option in the final year. This was an intelligent trade for the Knicks as this allowed the team to bring more All-Stars to the team with the remaining amount of capital. Last season, Jalen Brunson assisted the New York Knicks to reach the second round of playoffs yet again after helping the Knicks achieve the number 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. This was the team’s best record over a decade. His performance during the 13 playoff matches was the most impactful of his entire career, where he scored 32.4 ppg, 3.3 rebounds, and 7.5 assists with a shooting rate of 44.44%. Unfortunately, after a hard-fought battle, the team lost against their arch-rivals Indiana Pacers in 6 games and that was the end of the Knicks’ season journey.
