Jalen Brunson: Captain Crunchtime

Related Topics: Jalen Brunson, Steph Noh

On Thursday night, the Knicks were in a dogfight with the Chicago Bulls in the first game out of the all-star break.

After a sluggish first half which saw both teams attempt to accomplish the seemingly Herculean task of making a three-pointer, both teams caught fire offensively in the second half.

Especially the Bulls. A scorching 11-for-21 in the second half kept them not only in the game but in a position to win it after a stepback triple by Nikola Vucevic off of an inbound pass gave the Bulls a 104-102 lead with 50.
