Jalen Brunson sidelined for Knicks’ game against Jazz with right calf injury
NEW YORK (AP) — Jalen Brunson won’t play for the New York Knicks against Utah on Wednesday night because of right calf tightness.
The Knicks ruled out their All-Star point guard about 40 minutes before the game, when they were looking for a ninth straight victory.
Brunson scored a season-high 55 points in a win at Washington on Saturday, but then struggled to a 6-for-17 shooting performance two nights later in the rematch.
Deuce McBride was set to start at point guard.
