Jalen Brunson finds a way to hit this line vs. the Wizards consistently. He had 44 and 46 PRA vs. them so far this year and didn't play the last 2 minutes in both games. The most important part of this play is that the ball starts in his hands every possession and letΒ me explain why. Technically, the Wizards are a greatΒ matchup for basically everyone, it's all about the usage because if the ball is in your hands vs. the Wizards you should eat.
That's why the Knicks top 2 guys torched them last game. Randle had 39 and Brunson still covered with 44 (everyone else had 10 or fewer P)! His usage will remain high no matter what and it's the reason why his hit rates are so solid vs bad matchups. He's had 44 and 46 PRA vs. them so far this year and didn't play the last 2 minutes in both games. His last game vs. WAS was also a second leg of a B2B. So I don't care that it's a back to back and I don't care that there's blowout potential, Brunson should eat this matchup.
