Jalen Brunson: Knicks learned they’re ‘still resilient’ after weathering uneven start

Jalen Brunson says the Knicks have shown resilience and a willingness to improve after an uneven start to the season. New York began 2-4 amid questions about the team, but has steadied with five wins in its past six games and now stands at 5-4.

Coach Mike Brown said the difficult opening stretch reminded the team that success must be earned through attention to detail and consistency. Josh Hart, who has missed two games with right ankle soreness, is questionable for Tuesday’s home game against Milwaukee; Bucks leading scorer Tyler Herro is also questionable with a knee injury. Brunson was named Eastern Conference Player of the Week after averaging 27.7 points and 6.3 assists across three Knicks victories.
