PHILADELPHIA — Jalen Brunson playfully tried to escape a media scrum in front of his locker by announcing that Josh Hart was ready to talk to reporters.
Hart surely wanted to speak for himself after scoring 10 points, grabbing 15 rebounds and finishing a whopping plus-46 for the New York Knicks.
Impressive, yes? Not to Brunson,
"I could care less," he deadpanned.
Brunson smiled as he peeked at Hart at a neighboring stall, the two former Villanova teammates with plenty of reason to joke after a laugher in Philly.
Brunson hit four 3-pointers and scored 29 points to lead the Knicks to a 128-92 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night.
