Jalen Brunson has already racked up two All-NBA Second Team selections with the New York Knicks. If he keeps hooping the way he is now, he could be headed for a First Team nod at the end of this season—an esteemed honor that would put him in incredibly rare company.
Patrick Ewing was the last member of the Knicks to earn an All-NBA First Team cameo…all the way back in 1989-40. That’s nearly 40 years ago for those keeping score at home.
Not only that, but only five Knicks players all-time have received a First Team bid: Ewing (once), Bernard King (twice), Walt Clyde Fraizer (four times), Willis Reed (once), and Harry Gallatin (once).
