Josh Hart has known Jalen Brunson for nearly a decade, and knows him well.
The two won a national title together at Villanova in 2016, and both their numbers hang in the rafters at The Finneran Pavilion.
So believe Hart when he talks about Brunson after the player at the center of what could be the best Knicks’ season in a decade returned from injury to lead New York to a 116-110 win over the Nuggets on Saturday. “Still ready to work, still wanting to work, still hungry to work. For me, man, it’s just amazing to see. I’ve seen the work. And that’s what he does.”Indeed, Brunson would ink a four-year, $104 million deal with the Knicks.
As the Garden crowd serenaded Brunson with M-V-P chants on Saturday, though, it was hard not to imagine Leon Rose feeling good about his investment.
