New York Knicks starting point guard Jalen Brunson is building a solid case for an All-Star consideration this season.
His career-high numbers — 20.8 points, 6.5 assists and 1.0 steals — and his leadership have been a difference maker in New York.
Entering Friday night’s game in Toronto, the Knicks are sporting a 21-18 record, assured of a winning record halfway through the season.
But despite Brunson’s game screaming All-Star, his name is nowhere to be found among the top 10 guards in the initial All-Star fan voting result. He said playing in the All-Star game would be nice, but the voting process is beyond his control.
