With Jalen Brunson on the bench with five fouls for most of the second half, the Knicks' bench came up big to help New York defeat the Pacers on Tuesday.

Jalen Brunson finished the loss with 36 points and five assists while shooting 10//18 from the field and 3/7 from the three-point range in 36 minutes of playing time. After the game, the All-Star guard made an honest statement (h/t SNY's Knicks Videos).

New York traded for Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns in the hopes of closing the gap of sorts with their conference rivals. After two games during the 2024-25 season, though, one thing has been clear - the gap may have grown even wider.

On Thursday, the New York Knicks announced that they had made a trade for Delon Wright (via the Milwaukee Bucks). Wright comes to New York with averages of 2.5

NEW YORK (AP) — Jalen Brunson had 42 points and 10 assists, breaking a tie with Carmelo Anthony for third on the franchise list with his 18th 40-point game with the Knicks, and New York beat the Houston Rockets 124-118 on Monday night.

Clutch antics from Jalen Brunson allowed the Knicks to escape with yet another victory, as they downed the Toronto Raptors by a 121-115 final at Scotiabank Arena. Brunson led all Knicks with 28 points while Karl-Anthony Towns put up 27 points and 20 rebounds, nine of the offensive variety.

While the trade deadline has now come and gone, the Knicks still have clear areas of need on their roster to address.
