The Knicks had quite a scare on Wednesday night.
Jalen Brunson subbed out of NBA Finals Game 1 and headed to the locker room after grabbing his right leg following a collision with Harrison Barnes late in the first quarter. He returned to the bench early in the second quarter and then re-entered the game shortly after with around 8:00 left.
Barnes, while rushing toward the net to look for a rebound, crashed into Landry Shamet and then fell toward Brunson, hitting what appeared to be the Knicks star’s right leg.
Mikal Bridges came in for Brunson with 1:27 left in the first.
