The Knicks' path to victory will be much harder on Wednesday night as they will be without one of their top stars. Jalen Brunson is listed as out ahead of Wednesday night’s game for the same ankle issue that has kept him sidelined since March 6. The Knicks' goal is to get the star point guard back before the playoffs, and he is progressing well.
