Knicks rule out Jalen Brunson for remainder of Kings game after ankle injury
Knicks star Jalen Brunson suffered a right ankle injury in the first quarter of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings and was eventually ruled out to return.
Brunson tried to cross up Maxime Raynaud on the wing, but slipped and fell, appearing to turn his ankle.
The injury occurred with 7:45 remaining in the first quarter as Brunson tried to remain in the game, but checked out with 7:01 on the clock and headed to the locker room.
New York trailed Sacramento, 16-8, at the time.
After initially being designated as questionable to return, the Knicks delivered the update just before the second half started. Brunson had scored four points on 2-for-3 shooting, missing a three-pointer, in five minutes of action.
The Knicks guard missed two games last November when he sprained the same ankle against the Orlando Magic.
This is a developing story and will be updated…
