It was fitting that Jalen Brunson came through in the clutch in Saturday night\u2019s playoff opener, a day before he was named as one of three finalists for the NBA\u2019s Clutch Player of the Year (also known as the Jerry West Trophy) on Sunday night.<\/p>\n
Brunson scored 12 of his game-high 34 points in the final 8:27, leading the Knicks to a come-from-behind Game 1 victory over the Pistons on Saturday night. <\/p>\n
During the regular season, Brunson averaged a league-leading 5.6 points and shot 51.5 percent from the field in the clutch \u2014 when the game is within five points in the last five minutes, as defined by the NBA. He committed only 0.3 turnovers per game in such situations.<\/p>\n
The other finalists are Anthony Edwards of the Timberwolves and Nikola Jokic of the Nuggets.<\/p>\n
The NBA introduced the award in 2022-23. <\/p>\n
De\u2019Aaron Fox won it the first year and Stephen Curry claimed the honor last season. One hundred media members vote on the award.<\/p>\n
For either team, the biggest injury concern for Monday is Detroit\u2019s Isaiah Stewart, who has been dealing with knee pain and motioned for a sub in the middle of the Knicks\u2019 21-0 run in the fourth quarter of Game 1.<\/p>\n

Pistons coach J.B. Bickerstaff said he had no update after Sunday\u2019s film session, but indicated that Stewart was dealing with more than just knee inflammation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot going on there,\u201d Bickerstaff said.<\/p>\n
Stewart was listed as questionable for Game 2.<\/p>\n
Stewart, a physical frontcourt presence, was the only Piston with a positive plus-minus (they outscored the Knicks by eight points with him on the court), but he only managed 19 minutes.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we all felt [his absence]. He was phenomenal [Saturday] night,\u201d Bickerstaff said. \u201cHis effort, how he protected the rim, the energy he brought, how his teammates fed off that energy, was huge. And when he\u2019s not on the floor for us, we all have to bring that. We have to find a way. Because we just can\u2019t lean on him and just expect it to be him. We have to play with that same ferociousness and that effort that he does.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
