Knicks' Brunson Suffers Ankle Injury in Win
All-Star Guard Sidelined After Non-Contact Incident
New York's Hot Streak Dampened by Injury Concerns
In a disheartening turn of events, New York Knicks All-Star guard Jalen Brunson was forced to leave Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a non-contact leg injury. The injury occurred almost immediately as Brunson attempted a jump shot, sending shockwaves through the Knicks and their fans.
Brunson, who has been a key contributor for the Knicks this season, averaging 27.2 points per game, was attempting a shot over Cavs defender Darius Garland when his leg gave out. The 26-year-old guard collapsed to the floor in pain, with trainers and teammates rushing to his aid.
The Knicks were able to secure a 121-109 victory over the Cavaliers, but the injury to Brunson cast a shadow over the win. Brunson had been carrying the Knicks during a recent stretch of injuries to several key players, making his absence even more concerning.
