The New York Knicks were able to take down the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night and once again, that was partly thanks to the hard work and excellent skills of Jalen Brunson. Brunson posted a strong total of 32 points, five rebounds, and 10 assists, shooting 11-of-19 from the floor and 6-of-9 from downtown.

It was a great game and, as luck would have it, a historic one for Brunson as well. He now holds a special place in the long and storied history of his team.

“With tonight’s performance, Jalen recorded 30+ points, 10+ assists and 5+ rebounds for the fifth time as a Knick. He is now tied for third in franchise history with Stephon Marbury and Ray Williams,” the New York Knicks wrote on X.

Brunson wasn’t the only Knicks star to light up the scoreboard on Tuesday. In fact, all five starters were in double digits, with Mikal Bridges posting 22 points, Karl-Anthony Towns notching 21 points and 13 rebounds, OG Anunoby producing 16 points, and Landry Shamet putting up 10.

However, they were happy to see Brunson take the lead because that’s his job as the team’s biggest star. He is once again having a sensational season with an average of 27.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 6.6 assists on 47.1 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from distance.

Even before joining this exclusive club with Marbury and Williams, Brunson held a special place in the hearts of all Knicks fans. He has turned into a superstar and an unquestionable leader during his previous three seasons in New York.

He has already found success with the Knicks, but the stakes and goals are even higher this year, and Brunson is giving fans hope and faith in a potential Finals appearance.
