The New York Knicks had a spirited run in the NBA playoffs but ultimately fell to the Indiana Pacers in Game 7 of the second round largely due to injuries to many key players.
Point guard Jalen Brunson was one of those injured players, as he suffered a broken hand in Game 7, but he seems to be keeping busy in the offseason and recovery looks to be going well according to a recent clip.
A new video on X showed Brunson hanging out at the Philadelphia Eagles minicamp wearing a cast on his injured hand.

Brunson was born and raised in southern New Jersey up until sixth grade and played college ball at Villanova, so he still has ties to the Philadelphia area on both accounts given the amount of Philly fans who live in New Jersey.
His parents also met at Temple University, which is also in Philadelphia.
Hopefully, this doesn’t upset Knicks fans too much, as Brunson became a New York City legend with his performance this season and is on his way to becoming an honorary New Yorker.
Knicks fans surely would have preferred to see him at Giants minicamp, but you can’t have everything.
The Knicks have a fun offseason ahead of them as they clearly showed they have a roster capable of being a contender, but need to find a way to get over the hump and to keep their guys healthy,
Hopefully Brunson wasn’t catching any passes with that broken hand, because that certainly wouldn’t help.
