Brunson produced another big-stage masterclass in the Cup final, controlling the game offensively and punishing San Antonio’s guards in isolation and pick-and-roll. His poise, shot creation and decision-making under pressure confirmed him as the tournament’s standout performer and earned him the NBA Cup MVP award. Logging heavy minutes and consistently tilting the floor in New York’s favour, Brunson outplayed a deep Spurs backcourt while still sharing credit with role players who delivered crucial contributions. His performance reinforced his status among the league’s elite offensive guards and showcased the leadership that now defines this Knicks era in knockout basketball.

Speaking post-game on Prime, Brunson admitted the final was “ugly” but said the Knicks’ focus and connection carried them through. Hart highlighted how recent adversity has toughened the group, with late-game stops and key buckets now seen as expected responses instead of surprises. Brunson publicly praised Anunoby, Kolek, Clarkson and Robinson for their impact, then distilled New York’s mindset into a simple motto: “We’re going to find a way.” Hart echoed that the squad’s growth under pressure is building long-term belief, with the Cup run viewed internally as a launchpad for deeper postseason ambitions.

With the Knicks and Spurs set to meet in the Emirates NBA Cup final, Jalen Brunson and Victor Wembanyama have emerged as the leading contenders for the competition’s inaugural MVP award, with one decisive performance likely to secure both the Cup and individual honours. The latest Cup MVP ladder highlights Brunson’s ruthless efficiency and string of high-scoring displays, plus Wembanyama’s game-changing impact off the bench on his return from injury, noting that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the only top candidate already eliminated before Tuesday’s showcase in Las Vegas.
Jalen Brunson
December 2025
Jalen Brunson poured in 40 points with eight assists to lead the Knicks past the Magic and into the Emirates NBA Cup final, extending his run of consecutive 30-plus point games and sharpening calls for All-NBA and Kia MVP recognition as New York chases two trophies. Brunson matched Jalen Suggs in the first half then pulled away after the break, calmly controlling tempo while Karl-Anthony Towns and OG Anunoby supplied strong support, prompting coach Mike Brown to publicly push his MVP case by emphasising how consistently Brunson carries the Knicks’ offense in big moments.
OG Anunoby (New York Knicks)
November 2025
OG Anunoby will miss at least two weeks with a left hamstring strain and will not travel on the Knicks’ upcoming road swing, removing a key two way starter who averages 15.8 points per game from a rotation already missing All Star guard Jalen Brunson through ankle trouble. Hurt early in a high scoring win over Miami, Anunoby will be re evaluated after a fortnight while the Knicks scramble to cover his scoring and perimeter defence. The setback places extra load on remaining wings and raises concern about rhythm as the schedule toughens away from Madison Square Garden.
