Jalen Brunson has officially become New Yorkβs version of Batman. During the Knicksβ historic 2026 playoff run, fans joked that crime in New York City dropped 78% during Knicks playoff games because everybody was locked in watching Brunson put on another masterclass at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks have now reached their first NBA Finals in 27 years behind one of the greatest postseason runs in franchise history, and Brunson has been the heartbeat of it all. Brunson earned Eastern Conference Finals MVP after averaging 25.5 points and 7.8 assists against Cleveland, including a legendary 38-point comeback performance in Game 1. The Knicks also made NBA history by outscoring opponents by 262 points over an 11-game playoff stretch while Brunson continued building his reputation as one of the NBAβs most clutch playoff performers. Brunson has completely transformed basketball in New York and brought championship energy back to Madison Square Garden.
