Jalen Brunson's Fantasy Value Expected to Dip Under New Knicks Coaching Staff
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson, coming off a productive 2024-25 season where he averaged 26 points, 7.3 assists, and 2.3 triples, is projected to see a decrease in fantasy value. While he showcased elite scoring and playmaking, his high output was tied to heavy minutes and usage under former coach Tom Thibodeau. With Mike Brown now at the helm, the Knicks are expected to consciously limit minutes across the roster. This, combined with a new game plan and the additions of role players like Guerschon Yabusele, Jordan Clarkson, Landry Shamet, and Malcolm Brogdon, suggests Brunson will not replicate his 50th-place per-game fantasy finish. His playing time and statistical output are anticipated to decline.
