The point guard appeared to twist his ankle after drawing a foul while taking a pair of free throws and fell awkwardly. He did not return to the bench, heading straight to the Knicks locker room instead.
Brunson later left the arena on crutches and wearing a walking boot. The team is expected to provide an update on his condition in the coming hours. If the injury proves more serious, Miles McBride would likely step in as his replacement.
Before Wednesday’s setback, Brunson was averaging 27.7 points, 6.6 assists and 3.6 rebounds per game this NBA season.
