SACRAMENTO — The Knicks didn’t just win their first game since Jalen Brunson’s sprained ankle. They dominated the Kings. In their first double-digit victory in almost a month, New York’s offense was humming behind a balanced attack.

The New York Knicks are preparing for life without Jalen Brunson for the foreseeable future after an ankle injury has placed him on the sidelines. This comes at an important time for the Knicks as they look to keep the No.

Anyone with eyes knows what it would mean for N.Y. if Brunson were to miss significant time — like trying to drive a car without the keys.
