The former Dallas guard drops 28 points and hits Shamet for the game-winner

Jalen Brunson made a strong return from a right ankle sprain, scoring 28 points to lead the New York Knicks to their first road win of the season, 113-111 over the Dallas Mavericks. The ex-Mav assisted Landry Shamet’s clutch 3-pointer in the final minute that sealed the game.

The contest ended dramatically after Brandon Williams was called for an offensive foul with 0.7 seconds left. “When you win ugly, it shows growth,” Brunson said, downplaying concerns about his ankle, which he said felt “fantastic.”

Dallas played without Anthony Davis, Cooper Flagg, and Kyrie Irving, while the Knicks were missing OG Anunoby. For Brunson, it was his first win in four tries against his former team — and proof he’s fully back in form.
