Jalen Brunson has been amazing in the playoffs.
Jalen Brunson has been phenomenal during the 2024 NBA Playoffs. So much so, that he's even joining Michael Jordan and LeBron James on some very historic lists.
After Game 6 between the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers, Jalen Brunson became the third player in NBA history with four consecutive playoff games of 35+ points and 5+ assists in a single postseason.
