James Edwards: FINAL: Mavs 129, Knicks 114. Bad across the board, but the offense was shockingly bad considering what New York has done on that end as of late. Jalen Brunson: 37 points & 7a, Karl-Anthony Towns: 25p & 14r. NYK were just 7-29 from 3. More struggles against a switch-heavy team. Had been a while.

Pretty ugly defense from the Nuggets to wrap up this quarter. OG Anunoby got things going for the Knicks, and now Jalen Brunson is getting whatever he wants. – 9:31 PM

The NBA has contacted the Knicks recently about the promotion of assistant coach Rick Brunson and whether it violates league salary cap rules, SNY has learned. The Knicks on Monday night called the NBA’s questioning of the matter “harassment” and “offensive.” -via SportsNet New York / November 22, 2024
Rick Brunson was promoted in the 2024 offseason; his son, Jalen Brunson, signed a contract extension in the same offseason that was seen as team-friendly because Jalen could have made more money as a free agent in 2025. The insinuation is that Rick Brunson’s salary is compensation for the salary that Jalen Brunson passed on by signing a four-year, $156 million extension last summer. -via SportsNet New York / November 22, 2024
