The New York Knicks highlighted the chemistry between Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson, who had just returned from the 2023 FIBA World Cup, in their first NBA preseason game. Before Coach Tom Thibodeau made a wise substitute against the Boston Celtics, Brunson quickly produced seven points and an assist in his limited six-minute debut, leaving a positive impression on their pre-season campaign.
Julius Randle’s small but significant cameo demonstrated his talent in under 13 minutes, scoring 10 points and grabbing 4 rebounds. The New York Knicks defeated the Boston Celtics 114-107 in a preseason match at Madison Square Garden.
Despite the demands of the crowd for more Jalen Brunson. Randle’s early withdrawal was a wise move. The regular season is eagerly anticipated by fans as quality over quantity triumphed.
