Jalen Brunson

When Jalen Brunson attacks the basket, defenders know they're in for a masterclass in ball handling and body control. During the Knicks' historic comeback in Game 4 against Philadelphia, Brunson drives hard into the paint with his team still trailing by 26 points. He absorbs contact while floating to the rim's backside, then flips up a crafty reverse layup that kisses off the glass and drops through, but he wasn't done. Seconds later, the Knicks steal the inbound and find Brunson again for the corner triple. The buckets were part of an explosive offensive outburst that saw New York outscore the 76ers by 56 points en route to completing a stunning four-game sweep.
