Jalen Brunson injury scare: Knicks guard shines vs. Pistons after return from locker room

Just when it appeared like the New York Knicks would get hit — again — with the injury bug in the NBA playoffs, Jalen Brunson showed up.

And New York would need every bit of Brunson's scoring.

Brunson returned from a right leg injury to help rally the Knicks past the Detroit Pistons Sunday in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series, 94-93, to take a 3-1 lead.

Brunson finished the day with a game-high 32 points on 13-of-26 shooting, including 4-of-7 from 3-point range, and added 11 assists and five rebounds.
