Brunson's Historic Knicks Run
from Tulsa News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Jalen Brunson is on the brink of history with the Knicks, poised to lead them to their first NBA Finals appearance since 1999 and first championship since 1973. Already third in playoff points after just four seasons, he’s averaging nearly 27 points in the postseason and could become the first father-son duo to play in the Finals for the same franchise—with his dad, Rick, on the coaching staff. Once a Dallas backup, Brunson’s rise was fueled by a bold Knicks investment now hailed as one of the franchise’s best free agent moves. His quiet leadership inspires teammates across New York, from Mets’ Juan Soto to Jets’ Aaron Glenn. A title would cement his legacy alongside legends like Ewing, Frazier, and Reed—and place him in the pantheon of New York’s greatest athletes, forever etched in the city’s championship lore.
