New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against Indiana. The first-year All-Star continues to deal with a right ankle sprain that kept him off the court Thursday versus Dallas. Miles McBride had the keys to the offense without Brunson. He put in a massive 45-minute shift and provided good two-way value with 21 points, six rebounds, five assists, and two steals. Racking up stats against a pacy Indiana side shouldn't be a problem for him either on Saturday.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's clash with Luka Doncic and the Mavericks. He's having an All-Star year and has been instrumental to the Knicks' success while Julius Randle (shoulder) remains out of the lineup. Unfortunately, he tweaked his ankle late in Tuesday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies, although he still finished just shy of a double-double. If Brunson can't see the floor versus Dallas, Donte DiVincenzo, coming off a 32-point showing, will be a lock for DFS participants. Miles McBride would be the favorite to take over the ball-handling duties without Brunson, so he'll be worth considering as a streaming option.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) had another stellar outing. During Tuesday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies, the All-Star finished with 27 points, shooting 11-for-21 from the field, adding eight assists and three steals. However, he injured his right ankle late in the fourth quarter, although he managed to walk off the floor. With this in mind, there's a realistic chance he won't play on Thursday night versus the Dallas Mavericks. If Brunson doesn't, it will be a tough blow for fantasy managers, considering he's averaged 38 points in the last three games. Expect Brunson to appear on the injury report heading into Thursday. If the 27-year-old is ruled out, Miles McBride would likely slide into the starting lineup and is worth streaming in any fantasy setup. Of course, Donte DiVincenzo would be the favorite to lead the way on the scoring end.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's action against Houston. He suffered a left calf contusion last week and has been out for two games. It's not a serious issue, and Brunson even went through the warmups ahead of Monday's matchup against Orlando before sitting out the contest, so it looks like there's a strong chance he returns on Wednesday. Miles McBride has produced a pair of strong performances as Brunson's fill-in in the starting unit, but he's set to land back on the bench, which will rob him of most of his fantasy value.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (calf) is in danger of missing a second consecutive game on Monday, as the team has listed him questionable for a tilt against Orlando. Following a run of three 30-point efforts in five outings, Brunson was forced to skip his first game of the season on Saturday versus Memphis. Miles McBride had a good game in his absence and could be looking at another start on Monday. He showcased an ability to help out fantasy managers in multiple areas at the weekend, posting 19 points, six rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (calf) is questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 27-year-old is on a roll this season, averaging a career-high 25.8 points. But he suffered a calf contusion in Thursday's meeting with the Mavericks, his former team, and had trouble walking after the contest. At any rate, if Brunson can't suit up on Saturday, Julius Randle and OG Anunoby could pick up most of the slack, with Miles McBride a favorite to enter the starting lineup. Malachi Flynn, who has logged only six minutes since being traded by the Raptors, could also see more work.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) was originally listed as questionable but has been upgraded to active against the Toronto Raptors on Monday. The star guard staying on the floor will mean a much better Knicks offense compared to him watching from the sidelines. Fantasy managers can put him into their lineups with confidence that he'll deliver another solid performance, especially against a Raptors team that has been pretty lenient to opposing guards.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is suffering from a left ankle sprain and has been tagged as questionable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. As the leader of the offense, losing Brunson for any amount of time is a big blow to the Knicks. He's having a great season so far as he averages 24.8 points, 5.5 assists, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.0 steals per game. If he has to miss his first game of the year, it's unclear whether Immanuel Quickley or Josh Hart would move into the starting five, but they both should see added minutes either way. Quentin Grimes may also see an uptick in opportunities in that scenario.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson put together a huge night as he led the team to a six-point win over the Detroit Pistons on Thursday. The 27-year-old finished the game with 42 points on 13-for-24 shooting, eight assists, six rebounds, and one turnover. This was his second 40-point game of the season and the third time he put up eight assists. While he's still searching for his first double-double of the year, Brunson continues to contribute at a high level in all fantasy formats.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson kicked off the NBA's new in-season tournament with a big 45-point performance Friday against Milwaukee. He tied Walt Frazier and Stephon Marbury for the most 40-point games by a point guard in franchise history, but it ended up coming in a losing effort as Damian Lillard sparked a late Bucks run, giving the Knicks a 110-105 loss. Brunson scored by far the most points on the historic first-ever night of in-season tournament action, shooting 17-for-30 from the field with a 2-for-8 record from downtown and a 9-for-11 effort at the charity stripe. His line also included five rebounds, four assists, and one steal. Brunson's shooting has been a bit off early in the season, but he's a highly talented scorer and was never going to slump for too long.

Team USA guard Jalen Brunson was one just four players for the USA to post a positive plus/minus against Lithuania on Sunday. The New York Knicks star ended the game with 14 points, seven assists, four rebounds, and one steal while shooting 4-for-10 from the floor and 5-for-6 from the free throw line while knocking down one triple. Brunson saw the floor for 23 minutes which was only behind Anthony Edwards and Mikal Bridges. His offensive efforts weren't enough to avoid an upset at the hands of Lithuania.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson scored 13 points for Team USA during the win over Greece on Monday. Brunson was perfect shooting the ball, going 5-for-5 from the field and 2-for-2 from the charity stripe while adding three rebounds and two assists. The 26-year-old, who averaged a career-high 24.0 points, 6.2 assists, and 41.6% shooting from deep last season, has played well throughout the FIBA World Cup. He'll look to keep it going on Wednesday versus Jordan.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson posted a perfect shooting night in Team USA's exhibition game against Spain on Sunday. The dynamic point guard finished the game shooting 9-for-9 with 21 points. 16 of his 21 points came in the first half alone. As a team, the Americans shot a red-hot 67% from the floor which includes 56% on threes. Spain is currently ranked first in the world while the US comes in at number two. Brunson and company sure didn't look like a team that was ranked lower than their opponent as they move to 3-0 in exhibitions.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson believes his involvement with Team USA this summer will help him prepare for the upcoming NBA season. "I think it's another way to get ready for training camp," Brunson said. "You gotta look at it and see the positives that come out of this, going towards the NBA season. I know I'll be ready for that. I think for me, my mindset is focused on this and not really worrying about what's going on ahead right now." Brunson was one of the breakout stars of the 2022-23 NBA season, leading the Knicks into the playoffs by averaging 24.0 points and 6.2 assists, which were both his career-high marks. We can expect to see similar output from the 26-year-old guard in 2023-24.

It's a crazy time of year around the National Basketball Association. Not long after the Denver Nuggets captured the franchise's first championship, French big manVictor Wembanyama was the top pick of the 2023 Draft.While new talent entering the league is all well and good, nothing turns the NBA upside down quite like the beginning of free agency. Since June 30, many notable players have signed with new teams. There were also more than a few significant trades. In either case, at least a handful of clubs will look very different (for the better?) come training camp. Let's take a look at some of the biggest names on the move and how they might affect the NBA landscape this season. 

Fred VanVleet - Houston Rockets

The Rockets entered the 2022-23 campaign as the second-youngest team in the National Basketball Association, and it showed. The club finished with 22 wins and 60 losses, with the Pistons being the only team with a worse record. As a result, the front office made a point to shake things up after the exhaustingly long year came to a close.The overhaul began when Stephen Silas, winning just 59 of his 236 games in Houston, was relieved of his head coaching duties. In his place, Ime Udoka, who helped guide the Celtics to an NBA Finals appearance in his first season, took the reigns. While Udoka's tenure in Boston didn't end on a positive note, he's still regarded as one of the sharpest minds in the league, even by those who lost respect for him on a personal level.https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1650612243661242369?s=20While having a knowledgeable head coach will help accelerate the growth of an up-and-coming squad, the Rockets needed someone to facilitate things on the floor. With Houston having plenty of cap space entering the offseason, the team signed ... [More]

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson scored a game-high 41 points in 45 minutes Friday night against Miami but couldn't keep the team alive in the playoffs. Brunson played out of his skin, shooting 14-for-22 from the field and 5-for-10 from downtown, but the rest of the squad combined for only 13 made field goals as the Knicks' season fizzled out with a 96-92 loss. It was Brunson's third consecutive game with at least 30 points, and he completed his line with four rebounds and three steals. Brunson seemingly got better with each game in the postseason and could've eventually done something very special in the Conference Finals. 2022-23 was a major breakthrough campaign for Brunson, and hopefully he can take another step in his development next season.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson exploded on Wednesday night to extend the series by at least one more game. The Villanova product finished the game with 38 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists while shooting 12-for-22 from the floor and 4-for-10 from three. He's been one of the only consistent forces for the Knicks throughout the playoffs so far, and they'll need another performance like this to grab a road win on Friday night in Miami.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson was fantastic against the Heat on Monday, but his 32-point, 11-assist effort wasn't enough in a 109-101 loss. Brunson joined elite Knicks company, becoming only the third player in franchise history with 30-plus points and 10-plus assists in a playoff game. He had a tough time from downtown with a 2-for-7 effort but shot a decent 10-for-21 overall from the field and was 10-for-11 at the foul line. Brunson logged 44 minutes with only one turnover and also had one steal. The 26-year-old is having a very good series and has gone for 30 points in two of the last three games, but the Knicks still find themselves facing elimination next time out.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson finished with a team-high 20 points in the playoff loss to Miami. He also added eight assists and six rebounds. The former Maverick struggled shooting, going 7-for-20 from the field and 0-for-5 from deep. Even worse, he continues to be bothered by an ankle injury, meaning he'll be a risky DFS option on Monday night for Game 4.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) was unable to do much during Thursday's practice, according to head coach Tom Thibodeau. The team is currently considering Brunson day-to-day with right ankle soreness. Luckily, the Knicks don't play again until Saturday, so Brunson has plenty of time to rest and recover. Possibly, the Knicks were giving Brunson and easy day in practice because they don't want to push him too hard right now. His absence would be a significant hit to the Knicks rotation. Immanuel Quickley would be asked to start if Brunson is unable to play on Saturday.
