NEW YORK — Jalen Brunson puts it in air quotes. “Added pressure.”
It’s not something he’s giving much credence to as he enters his first season with the Knicks, strapped with the type of contract that implies he’ll end the franchise’s long point-guard drought.
“For one, it’s not really pressure to me. I’ve played a long time,” Brunson said. “And two, I’m just gonna be myself. I’m ready to go. Whatever it takes.”
