Jalen Brunson is feeling the impact of the Knicks downgrading from Mitchell Robinson to Andre Drummond more than anyone else on the Knicks roster.

Dan Favale of Daily Knicks argues that the New York Knicks have complicated guard Jalen Brunson's offensive role by adding center Andre Drummond. Favale contends that Drummond's slower rolling and reduced vertical spacing negatively affect Brunson's driving lanes, passing options, and overall shot quality compared to his prior pairing with Mitchell Robinson.
The analysis notes that Brunson's two-point efficiency has dropped five percentage points alongside Drummond, while Drummond is converting only 58.8 percent at the rim. Favale concludes that the Knicks lack an internal solution and must pursue a trade for another center to ease Brunson's burden.
