In a spectacular 40-point performance, Jalen Brunson led the New York Knicks to a thrilling 109-105 victory over the Indiana Pacers, securing his first-ever All-Star Game selection.
The 27-year-old point guard’s contributions to the Knicks earned him a spot in the Eastern Conference reserves for the All-Star Game.
Joining Brunson are players like Bam Adebayo, Paolo Banchero, Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, Donovan Mitchell, and his teammate Julius Randle.
After the game, amidst chants of “MVP!” from the crowd, Brunson shared his sentiments about the intense match against the Pacers, describing it as “fun.”
However, when asked about his All-Star selection, a visibly emotional Brunson replied, “I got nothing to say,” tears welling up in his eyes.
