Sun Feb 5 202308:09Jalen Brunson Returns With 41 Points
New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson scored a game-high 41 points on 14-for-19 shooting in Saturday's 134-128 overtime loss to the Clippers. He was back in the lineup after missing Thursday's battle against the Heat and Brunson started slowly by scoring only seven points in the first quarter, but he soon regained his rhythm and ended up with his second-best scoring night of the season. He was 5-for-7 from downtown and also did outstanding work as a playmaker, delivering seven assists with only one turnover in 38 minutes. Brunson also added five rebounds to his tally. The 26-year-old averaged 28.7 points for January with 4.1 rebounds and 5.4 assists, and it looks like he has no plans to slow down this month either.

Fri Feb 3 202323:24Jalen Brunson May Not Suit Up On Saturday
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (illness) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Los Angeles Clippers. Brunson has battled a non-COVID-illness of late, recently keeping him out of the lineup for Thursday's meeting with the Miami Heat. Immanuel Quickley took his spot in the rotation for that one and finished with eight points, six rebounds, and four assists in 37 minutes of work. If Brunson doesn't suit up versus Los Angeles, Quickley should remain with the first five while seeing more attention from fantasy managers and DFS participants.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (illness) was forced to miss Thursday's game due to a non-COVID illness and it looks as though he hasn't fully shaken it just yet. The team listed him as questionable and he'll likely be a game time decision for Saturday's contest against the Los Angeles Clippers. Immanuel Quickley would be the safest streaming option if Brunson can't suit up while Evan Fournier or Miles McBride would be riskier options in deeper leagues.

However, McBride is more of a deep league option.

Wed Feb 1 202310:03Jalen Brunson Drops Game-High 37 Points
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson has continued his hot streak since returning from an injury on January 2.

Brunson has been pouring in buckets this season but it doesn't always equate to wins as the Knicks still try to figure out their best lineups. Fantasy-wise, Brunson has out-produced his ADP and has entered the top 50 in fantasy value for category leagues.

Brunson is perfectly set up to continue his scoring tear Sunday against the Pistons, who are allowing the fourth-most points in the league to opposing point guards this season.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (hip) has been tagged as questionable for the team's Monday night contest against the Phoenix Suns. The 26-year-old has already missed the last three games due to the same hip issue and is in danger of missing a fourth.

Fri Dec 30 202218:29Jalen Brunson Picks Up Questionable Tag For Saturday
New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (hip) has been deemed questionable to play in Saturday's game vs. Houston as he continues to battle a sore right hip. Brunson's absence Thursday paved the way for Immanuel Quickley to draw the start and drop a career-high 36 points; another game without Brunson would vault Quickley near the top of DFS intrigue charts. During his first season with the Knicks, Brunson's usage rate has climbed each month, as he has also shot 44.9 percent from long range during 12 December contests. Fantasy managers will want to closely monitor the Knicks' injury report ahead of tip-off Saturday.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He sat out of his first game of the season on Tuesday due to right hip soreness. Immanuel Quickley helped fill the void on Tuesday with Brunson sidelined. He struggled from the floor, but finished with 14 assists during that game.

Mon Dec 26 202223:36Jalen Brunson Questionable Against Former Team
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (hip) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks. The 26-year-old suffered a right hip injury during the Christmas Day loss to Philadelphia. If Brunson can't suit up against his former club, RJ Barrett and Julius Randle should do most of the heavy lifting offensively. At the same time, Miles McBride or Immanuel Quickley would likely take Brunson's spot in the starting lineup, with the latter having a much higher upside for fantasy managers.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (foot) is questionable against the Chicago Bulls. The former Maverick sustained a right foot contusion during Sunday's victory over the Sacramento Kings, although he still managed to log 44 minutes of work. Nonetheless, if Brunson can't make it out there on Wednesday, Miles McBride or Immanuel Quickley may enter the starting lineup, with the latter being the better fantasy option. However, Julius Randle and RJ Barrett should carry most of the load on the offensive end if Brunson doesn't play.

Mon Dec 5 202208:57Jalen Brunson Leads Knicks With 23 Points
New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson scored a team-high 23 points in Sunday's slow-burning 92-81 victory against Cleveland. He made two of his four attempts from deep and shot 7-for-16 overall with a 7-for-8 effort at the line. Brunson helped others with four assists and tallied two rebounds and one block with three turnovers in 32 minutes. The 26-year-old has been pretty inconsistent during his first year in New York. He had a nice three-game stretch of 30-point efforts near the end of last month but entered Sunday's action having averaged only 15.3 points in his previous three outings. Brunson is on 21.0 points per game for the year with 3.4 rebounds and 6.3 assists, so overall, fantasy managers can't complaint too much about how Brunson's season is going in the Big Apple.
