Knicks' Jalen Brunson Likely to Make His Return Tuesday
Brunson Expected to Play after Missing Last Two Games
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson is expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers after missing the last two games due to a foot injury. Brunson, who is averaging 20.2 points and 6.3 assists per game this season, has been a key part of the Knicks' success this season. He has started all 53 games he has played in and is one of the team's leading scorers and playmakers.
Brunson's Absence Felt in Knicks' Recent Losses
The Knicks have lost their last two games without Brunson in the lineup, including a disappointing 117-104 loss to the lowly Detroit Pistons on Sunday. Brunson's absence was noticeable in both games, as the Knicks struggled to generate offense and create easy scoring opportunities.
Brunson's return is a big boost for the Knicks, who are currently 29-24 and in seventh place in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks are hoping to make a playoff push this season, and Brunson's return will give them a much better chance of doing so.
