Knicks’ Jalen Brunson Reveals Emotional Impact Behind Thibodeau’s Sudden Exit
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson ascended to stardom under Tom Thibodeau. His father, Rick Brunson, played under Thibodeau when he was an assistant for the Knicks and the Houston Rockets. Then Rick Brunson coached on Thibodeau’s bench, first with the Chicago Bulls, then with the Minnesota Timberwolves and most recently with the Knicks.
All three of them were part of the Knicks making the Eastern Conference finals this past season for the first time since 2000. New York fell two wins shy of its first trip to the NBA Finals since 1999.
