"The Captain of New York"

Overview

Jalen Brunson was never supposed to be the face of the New York Knicks. He was the son of an NBA player. An accomplished guard at Villanova. A national champion. Yet despite his resume of accolades, found himself as a second-round pick entering his NBA journey. He was a player many believed was too small or too limited to become a true NBA superstar. From his early life around the game, to his ascention as the face of the New York Knicks, Brunson’s journey was built on patience and an almost unshakable belief in who he was. In this original documentary, we look back at the complete rise of Jalen Brunson — from his childhood and college career, to his NBA breakthrough, as well as a deep look into how an underrated guard from New Jersey became the player to lead the Knicks back to their first NBA Finals since 1999. This is the story of how Jalen Brunson became the captain of New York basketball, and brought basketball's Mecca back to life.
