Knicks fans were feeling all types of feelings Tuesday when several top NBA reporters stated that the Dallas Mavericks had all but given up trying to re-sign free agent point guard Jalen Brunson, who was almost certain to sign with the Knicks during free agency. But these are the Knicks, and we can never count on a big-name free agent actually signing with the organization until the ink on the contract is dry.
With that in mind, it was a bit upsetting to see Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes report that Brunson plans to meet with three teams when the free agency period opens Thursday: New York, Dallas, and “dark horse” Miami.
