Jalen Brunson is the ‘King of New York’ with one goal left to finish
NY Post
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Josh Hart has established the court-away-from-the-court. You need to know this.
“I’m the Duke of Manhattan,” Hart announced Wednesday, a few minutes after the Knicks had broken up practice at McAlister Field House on the campus of The Citadel. “OG [Anunoby], he can be the Duke of Queens. Mikal is the Duke of The Bronx.”
Presumably, that’ll leave both Brooklyn and Staten Island to the royal Stretch-5-in-waiting, Karl-Anthony Towns, whose acquisition the team was finally allowed to officially announce Wednesday afternoon.
“Can’t be Mikal in Brooklyn” Hart laughed. “We stole him from there.”
There is one unmistakable ruler in the room, and the rest of the members of his court happily serve at his pleasure. His name is Jalen Brunson.
“He’s the King of New York,” Hart said.
