Jalen Brunson’s right ankle twisted pretty bad coming down from that play at the rim. His foot landed on Austin Reaves’ foot. He is limping towards the Knicks’ bench, trying to walk it off. – 12:47 AM

Ben Golliver: Knicks’ Jalen Brunson stood at the free throw line for the entire timeout after he got injured in overtime because he was having that much trouble moving pic.x.com/N7NwnRQeq3 -via Twitter @BenGolliver / March 7, 2025
Remaining at the free-throw line allowed him to reenter if somehow he could have, but it also was a reflection that even walking to the other end of the floor to the bench would have been an arduous journey. “He’s being examined,” Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said. “I haven’t spoken with him. He was back with the medical people. “His mental toughness is through the roof. It doesn’t surprise me. The way he played the whole game, they were loaded up on him the whole game.” -via Newsday / March 7, 2025
But Doncic enjoyed working with those two. And the Mavs replaced them with European staffers who were handpicked by Doncic and too friendly with the All-Star to get him to work. They struggled to keep Doncic disciplined, according to a source with knowledge of the situation, and it progressed to the Mavericks trading their franchise player amid concerns about, among other things, his long-term health. After a year off, Smith joined the Knicks before this season. The Knicks also hired another former member of the Mavericks’ training staff, Heather Mau, the team’s senior athletic trainer. According to sources, Mau works closely with Jalen Brunson. They also worked together when they were both in Dallas. -via New York Post / March 6, 2025
