Jalen Brunson: Jalen Brunson is asked about the Knicks’ 0-4 record against the Celtics in the regular season: “You can’t really focus on the past and think, ‘oh, it’s going to be the same.’ We can’t have that mindset. We’ve got to be different.”

More on this storyline
Q: Is Brunson on a Hall of Fame trajectory? Bernard King: I’m not one to project what happens six, seven years from now. All I know is that he has decided that he’s going to be a great player. And when you make that decision, that means that you’re making all the sacrifices in the offseason necessary to take your skill sets to your game to another level. I see no reason why he will not continue to build and sustain this for the remainder of his career … he grew up around the game with his dad [assistant coach Rick] … he’s great for the city, he’s great for this organization, he’s great for young kids that watch the game. -via New York Post / May 5, 2025
Nike has a billboard outside of Madison Square Garden suggesting Knicks’ star Jalen Brunson “For Mayor.” The billboard shows Brunson hitting the now famous game-winning 3-pointer against the Detroit Pistons in Game 6. “Sure, he got my vote [for Mayor],” Mikal Bridges, Brunson’s former Villanova and current Knicks teammate, said Sunday at the team’s practice facility. Asked if he thought a lot of New Yorkers would also vote for Brunson, Bridges said, “Sure.” -via Newark Star-Ledger / May 4, 2025
Tatum averaged 33.5 points and shot 47.8 percent from 3-point range during Boston’s four-game sweep of the Knicks this season, with Tom Thibodeau also using Mikal Bridges as the primary defender against him. “I always have confidence [in OG] no matter who he is guarding,” Jalen Brunson said. “He brings that mindset every game. And so I have confidence regardless of whatever he is doing.” -via New York Post / May 4, 2025
