Jalen Brunson Addresses Sluggish Start and Shooting Slump

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson is enduring an uncharacteristically slow start, with his field goal (39.3%) and 3-point (33.3%) percentages dropping significantly. Brunson dismisses wrist surgery excuses, attributing the slump simply to missing shots he normally makes. Coach Mike Brown remains confident, noting Brunson is taking the same quality shots. His late-clock efficiency is notably down, mirroring the Knicks' broader offensive struggles early in the season.
