The New York Knicks have had a curious season. While boasting one of the most talented starting fives in the league (New York traded a boatload of assets for All-Defensive small forward Mikal Bridges over the summer and subsequently acquired All-Star center Karl-Anthony Towns right before training camp),

New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson returned to action Sunday and scored 15 points in a 112-98 victory over the Phoenix Suns after missing the past month with a right ankle sprain.

Brunson missed 15 games after he was hurt late in a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on March 6. He practiced fully with the Knicks on Friday for the first time since the injury and was cleared to return Sunday following a pregame workout at Madison Square Garden.
