Brunson Has Coach Brown’s Back After Controversial Non-Call

March 5, ESPN reports: The Oklahoma City Thunder held off the New York Knicks 103-100 in a tight finish.

Late in the first quarter, JalenBrunson tried to draw a third foul on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but got nothing from the officials. Knicks coach Mike Brown was so upset he argued the call and picked up a technical foul.

After the game, Brunson had his coach’s back — no ifs, ands, or tech fouls. “I’ve got his back every single night, and he’s always got ours,” Brunson said. “Whatever he does, however many techs he gets, I’m standing right with him.” And if you looked closely, you could see a bruise forming under his right eye.

When asked about it, Brunson just laughed and delivered a classic line: “That’s probably another no-call too.”
