Jalen Brunson chided by Knicks teammate after ‘weak’ dunk: ‘Like a 1’
NY Post
The Knicks’ bench quickly rose, realizing it was about to witness a niche moment in team history.
OG Anunoby’s face lit up, suddenly sporting a wide smile.
Jalen Brunson, all 6-foot-2 of the undersized point guard, had done it.
At 6:46 of the third quarter on Thursday, the face of the Knicks successfully broke away on a fast break on his favored left side, put the ball in his left hand and jumped, cleared the rim and threw the ball through the hoop.
It’s called a dunk, and it was the first credited to Brunson this season.
He chalked up all of five last season, his athleticism not the greatest attribute of an otherwise great player.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
