Jalen Brunson has been the Knicks’ leader. But Tuesday they made it official, honoring him as their first team captain in years.
“The New York Knicks have a deep and storied history and today we are immensely proud to add to that lineage by naming Jalen Brunson as our captain,” team president Leon Rose said in a statement.
“Jalen is a natural born leader, and I am confident he will continue to represent our organization, fans, city and his teammates with the same heart, grit and class he has displayed each and every day since he came to New York.”
