NEW YORK — So this is what a real point guard looks like.
Jalen Brunson was impressive in his Knicks debut Tuesday, flashing the playmaking and organizing skills that have long eluded this franchise.
It was only 20 minutes in a 117-96 preseason victory over the Pistons, but the results were nothing but encouraging for Brunson. It started twenty seconds after tipoff with a drive and floater. It included 16 points on 7-for-9 shooting with five assists, a nifty reverse lay-up and perhaps most notable given the circumstances of a meaningless preseason game, two charges drawn.
