The New York Knicks picked up their fourth straight win on Sunday with a 112-99 victory over the Sacramento Kings, but not without two separate Jalen Brunson injury scares.

In the second quarter, Brunson collided with Kings rookie Keegan Murray in the air and took a hard fall on his elbow. Brunson returned to the game, but in the fourth quarter, he injured his ankle and didn’t return to the game. Following the win, Tom Thibodeau said that Brunson sprained his ankle and that the plan is to see how he feels on Monday. New York’s next game is on Wednesday in Chicago.

Although Obi Toppin is out with a fracture, Cam Reddish didn’t play for the fourth straight game on Sunday. According to Newsday’s Steve Popper, the current trade market for the 2019 lottery pick is a second-round pick or a player on a rookie contract with a different skill set than Reddish.
