What happened to Jalen Brunson? Live injury updates for Knicks at 76ers

Jalen Brunson suffers foot injury in Knicks' loss to 76ers

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson suffered a foot injury in the Knicks' 119-112 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night. Brunson left the game in the third quarter after stepping on the foot of 76ers center Joel Embiid. He did not return to the game.

Brunson's injury is a significant blow to the Knicks

Brunson has been one of the Knicks' most consistent players this season, averaging 22.2 points and 6.3 assists per game. He is also one of the team's best perimeter defenders. The Knicks are already without starting point guard Derrick Rose, who is out with a knee injury. Brunson's injury will force the Knicks to make some adjustments to their lineup.

Brunson's injury could open the door for Immanuel Quickley

Quickley has been playing well in Brunson's absence, averaging 18.5 points and 5.0 assists per game in his last three starts. He is a talented scorer and playmaker who could step into Brunson's role as the Knicks' starting point guard.

The Knicks will need to be careful not to rush Brunson back from injury

Brunson's foot injury is a potentially serious injury. The Knicks will need to be careful not to rush him back from injury. If he returns too soon, he could reaggravate the injury and miss even more time. The Knicks are scheduled to play the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night. It is unclear if Brunson will be able to play in that game.
