Concerning Jalen Brunson trend hurts Knicks in alarming Game 3 loss
NY Post
Jalen Brunson has found his shot in the fourth quarter of each game of this Eastern Conference semifinal series.
But he has struggled in the first three periods. That continued in the Celtics’ 115-93 Game 3 rout of the Knicks that sliced their series lead in half.
Brunson finished with a team-high 27 points, but eight of those came over the final 12 minutes after the result was well in hand.
In Game 2, he scored nine points in the final 4:39, including the game-winning free throws with 12.7 seconds to go. He also had 11 points in the fourth quarter of the opener.
In the first three quarters across all three games, Brunson is shooting 36.5 percent from the field.
Overall in the series, he is slightly better at 38.1 percent, down from his 43.6 percent mark against the Pistons in the opening round. But that’s not going to hurt his confidence.
