On June 14, 2026, the New York Post published a column arguing that New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson has already contributed enough to the franchise to justify a statue outside Madison Square Garden—even beyond the prospect of delivering an NBA championship.
The opinion piece credits Brunson’s influence on and off the court, stating that his leadership, performance and culture-shifting presence have reshaped the team’s identity and rekindled enthusiasm among fans. According to the column, those achievements alone merit permanent recognition at the arena’s entrance.
