Jalen Brunson aggravates foot injury vs. Kings
Jalen Brunson’s return to the Knicks’ lineup lasted just two quarters. After missing two games with a sore left foot, the Knicks’ starting point guard didn’t come out for the second half Thursday night due to the same injury, the team announced. “He just re-aggravated it, but I haven’t talked to the medical people yet,” coach Tom Thibodeau said after the Knicks’ 122-117 loss. “Just soreness.”

Jalen Brunson will not play in second half vs Kings due to left foot soreness. Brunson had missed previous two games due to left foot soreness; he returned tonight & played 19 minutes before being ruled out again. Knicks trail SAC by 18 early in 3rd quarter. – 11:30 PM

Kings lead the Knicks 69-53 at the half. Sacramento had a 20 point lead in that first half. Malik Monk leads Sacramento with 17 points off the bench. NY shooting just 35% from the floor, gets 19 from Jalen Brunson. – 11:12 PM

Kings lead the Knicks 30-23 after 1 in Sacramento. Julius Randle letting it fly from the perimeter, but Kings are fortunate that he’s only 1/5 from the arc. Domantas Sabonis 11 points for Sac, Jalen Brunson 10 for NY – 10:34 PM

In the Knicks layup line Jalen Brunson just went into the lane, threw it off the backboard, caught it, went between his legs…while standing, and tossed in a short set shot. – 9:53 PM

“He just re-aggravated it, but I haven’t talked to the medical people yet,” Thibodeau said. “Just soreness.” Asked if Brunson is headed back to New York for tests, Thibodeau added: “Not that I know of. I’ll speak with the medical people. Let them do their job. You gotta trust them, and you trust Jalen. They’ll evaluate him, and whatever he needs, we’ll make sure he gets.” -via New York Post / March 10, 2023
