In an interview with USA Today Sports, the New York Knicks guard spoke about adapting to playing with him. Brunson said Luka Doncic has already established himself as a first-ballot Hall of Famer in the NBA. "It wasn’t really difficult (to play alongside him) because you knew what it was," Brunson said. "Luka is such a great talent. He can do anything on the court. I think, for me, I kind of figured out how to play with him because he’s so dominant. He knows how to play the game, he knows how to help his team win." "I truly loved playing with him because we were in a position to win every night because of him. I’ve said this numerous times and I’ll continue to say it until I speak it into existence; That dude is a first-ballot Hall of Famer." Last season, Jalen Brunson and Luka Doncic led the Dallas Mavericks to the Western Conference Finals. The duo carried much of the franchise's heavy lifting in the postseason. Brunson's incredible playoff performance led to him receiving a massive new contract from the New York Knicks this summer. Meanwhile, Luka Doncic hopes to lead the Dallas Mavericks to the NBA Finals this season.
