CJ McCollum on Jalen Brunson staying down after kick: He thought we were at a Broadway show

[ASFN Admin]

During the second quarter of the Knicks’ 113-102 Game 1 win over the Hawks on Saturday night, McCollum was given a technical for kicking Brunson right in the midsection while taking a jump shot (he was also called for a travel on the play). Brunson stayed down on the ground in pain for a few moments. McCollum accused Brunson of milking it. “I shot a jumper, and Jalen thought we were at a Broadway show,” McCollum said. “He acted it out until they reviewed it. It’s a normal jump shot. Nothing there. Unnecessary, and I look forward to getting my $2,500 [fine] back.”
