US EditionJalen Brunson Describes “Ugly” Return to Knicks After Injury
- On Wednesday, New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson returned to start against the Dallas Mavericks after missing two games with a Grade 1 right ankle sprain.
- Brunson left Dallas in July 2022 after four seasons with the Mavericks, joining New York where his ties to Leon Rose, Tom Thibodeau, and Rick Brunson helped him flourish at Madison Square Garden.
- His season averages are 28 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists entering Wednesday, and he averaged 26.7 points versus Dallas, his highest against any opponent.
- His return lets coach Mike Brown manage rotations and offensive flow more effectively as the Dallas Mavericks sit near the bottom with a 4-11 record and several key players sidelined.
- He was evaluated daily and will likely play limited minutes as the Knicks manage his recovery, with the same right ankle sprain that cost him 15 games last season, while OG Anunoby remains sidelined until December 2.
