Confusion continues for the New York Knicks. After waiting months for Mitchell Robinson to return from an injury suffered in last season’s playoffs, the Knicks recently lost their All-Star point guard to an ankle injury.

Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said he expects Jalen Brunson, who hasn't played since injuring his ankle March 6, to return to action before the regular-season finale.

The New York Knicks remain hopeful that Jalen Brunson can play in a few games before the postseason, coach Tom Thibodeau said Thursday. Thibodeau said Brunson will be checked again on Friday, about two weeks after he sprained his right ankle in a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.
