The New York Knicks have been treading water since Jalen Brunson sprained his ankle on March 6 against the Los Angeles Lakers. They are 6-5 without their All-Star point guard and still holding off the surging Indiana Pacers for the No.

Jalen Brunson said Sunday he is feeling and moving better on his sprained right ankle and still hoping to rejoin the New York Knicks before the playoffs. Brunson missed his 12th straight game when the Knicks played Portland and the All-Star point guard isn't certain when he can return.

On Sunday night, the New York Knicks are heavy favorites against the Portland Trail Blazers despite missing their best player, Jalen Brunson. The All-Star point guard has missed the last 11 games with an ankle injury and won't suit up against Portland.
