Knicks’ Jalen Brunson out of walking boot and ‘doing light shooting’

CHARLOTTE — Two weeks removed from turning his ankle at a nasty angle, Jalen Brunson is out of the walking boot and “doing light shooting,” according to Tom Thibodeau.

The Knicks coach added that “hopefully” Brunson will return to establish a rhythm before the playoffs.

“Whenever he’s ready, he’s ready. He’s putting a lot into his rehab, so right now, that’s where we want his focus to be,” Thibodeau said. “And then hopefully, he’ll get into some games where he works his way back into it.”
