New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson will miss at least two weeks due to a right ankle sprain sustained during a recent loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Brunson, who ranks high in both scoring and assists this season, suffered the injury late in the game after making key plays to tie the score. His absence comes as the Knicks embark on a challenging West Coast road trip, making his recovery critical for the team's continued playoff push, currently positioned third in the Eastern Conference.
Brunson, who is seventh in the league in scoring, rolled his right ankle with 1:24 remaining in overtime after landing on the foot of a Lakers player.
Brunson led the Knicks with 39 points and 10 assists, sending the game into overtime but now faces a minimum two-week absence due to injury.
