New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson is the undisputed captain of the team. The Knicks will need Brunson's leadership as the team embarks on the knockout stage of the NBA Cup, which begins tomorrow against the Atlanta Hawks.

Brunson is still the prolific, quirky scorer who, despite his size, doesn’t often leave a game with fewer than 20 points. He has gone from an elite 3-point shooter to a more elite 3-point scorer. He still owns a few houses in the midrange.

New York's point guard has been true to himself to start the season, and that's why the team has been on a roll over the last few weeks.
