Jalen Brunson's transformation into an NBA All-Star for the New York Knicks is a remarkable story of personal growth and exceptional performance. Before Brunson's arrival, the Knicks struggled to find a point guard who could consistently deliver high-scoring games. In the 15 years prior to his signing, no Knicks starting point guard had more than two games with at least 30 points and 5 assists in a season. Brunson, however, has already achieved 18 such games by the All-Star break this season. His journey to stardom has been significantly influenced by his family, with both his mother, Sandra, and his NBA father, Rick, playing pivotal roles in his development. Brunson's mother, hailing from Long Island, and his father's experience in the NBA have been crucial in molding him into the player and person he is today. Brunson's rise to prominence will be celebrated as he makes his first NBA All-Star Game appearance on Sunday at 8:00pm/et on TNT.
