Jalen Brunson hardly can make a shot, and the Knicks are 2-0 in their first-round playoff series against the 76ers.
Jalen Brunson hardly can make a shot, and the Knicks are 2-0 in their first-round playoff series against the 76ers.
Brunson got a fortunate bounce on a massive 3-pointer to kick off the winning sequence in the final 30 seconds of the game, but the All-Star guard endured his second straight rough shooting night in the Knicks’ miraculous 104-101 Game 2 win Monday night at the Garden.
Brunson followed up an 8-for-26 showing in the Knicks’ Game 1 victory on Saturday, by missing 21 of 29 field-goal attempts to lower his shooting percentage to .291 (16-for-55) through two games.
“The one thing about this team is no one really cares who’s doing what, who gets the credit for what,” said Brunson, who also clanked five of six shots from 3-point range in each of the two games.
