The New York Knicks beat the Sacramento Kings, 112-99, on Sunday night at MSG. Unfortunately, the victory came at a price. Starting point guard Jalen Brunson went down early in the fourth quarter when Kings guard Davion Mitchell landed on his ankle. Brunson limped to the locker room and wouldn’t play again.
After the game, head coach Tom Thibodeau confirmed that Brunson suffered a sprained ankle.
It has been a rough few weeks from Brunson’s health. Even though he has yet to miss a game this season, he has had his share of nicks and bruises. He nearly missed a game with a quad contusion.
