No hubo falta en el ataque al aro de Jalen Brunson al cierre del @NYKnicks – @ElThunder.
Explican que Dort hizo contacto con Brunson, pero en parte porque Isaiah Hartenstein contactó a Dort.
El contacto Dort-Brunson es incidental.

Jalen Brunson is just the fourth Knick to score 90+ points over a two-game span, joining Patrick Ewing, Carmelo Anthony, and Bernard King.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s 15-ft turnaround w/1.8 sec to play helped lift OKC to 113-112 road win over NYK. NYK had late lead thanks to Jalen Brunson’s strong drive & finish w/4 seconds to go. But NYK (44-30) was hurt by poor FT shooting (3 for 7 in final 4 min; Brunson 1 for 4) – 9:52 PM

What a wild game here at MSG, with Jalen Brunson making up for three late missed free throws with a circus layup over Chet Holmgren to give NYK a one point lead with 4.1 seconds left.
OKC will now inbound with a chance to win it. – 9:42 PM

Sensational game from Jalen Williams, who is up to 27 and 6 and just had a terrific end-to-end run, first blocking Jalen Brunson at one end and then beating the defense up court to draw a couple FTs at the other. – 9:16 PM

Thunder lead Knicks, 50-46, at the half. All eyes on Jalen Brunson, who’ll have to keep his ankle moving for 15 minutes so it doesn’t get stiff/cold in the second half.
Brunson came up hobbled twice in the first half after tweaking his left ankle. – 8:10 PM

Jalen Brunson was slow to get up after a spin move on a baseline drive. He stood in place for a moment before slowly walking over the bench under his own power.

More on this storyline
Do you think Jalen Brunson is the best PG right now? How far do you think the Knicks can go this season? Kendrick Perkins: If the Knicks were healthy – that means having Julius Randle, OG Anunoby back in the lineup – the Knicks could actually go to the NBA Finals. They’re equipped to win now. They got great depth. Their defense is ferocious. They play with a tenacity like no other, led by Tom Thibodeau. But right now – and I call them the Villanova boys with the three-headed monster led by Jalen Brunson – I wouldn’t be surprised if they reached the Conference Finals if they could get to the No. 2 or 3 seed and prevent from seeing the Celtics in the second-round matchup. -via HoopsHype / March 30, 2024
