Mike Brown has made no secret of his plans to switch up the New York Knicks’ offense. And it’s starting to sound like Jalen Brunson is the player who will need to adapt more than anyone.
As Stefan Bondy of the New York Post writes, on top of injecting more pace into New York’s attack, Brown is expected to “bring more balance and structure to players’ roles.” That, in turn, stands to significantly impact Brunson, who as Bondy notes, “held the ball longer than any player in the NBA last season.”
This approach will represent a stark departure for both the Knicks, and their Captain.
