Villanova head coach Jay Wright was among the many who lauded Jalen Brunson's ascension to New York Knicks captain.
Jalen Brunson got the Wright stuff shortly after he was named the captain of the New York Knicks on Tuesday.

When he became the leading scorer, he knew that came with the added responsibility of thinking of the rest of the team even more.
Brunson used what he learned from Wright to carve out a solid career as it was after entering the league as a second-round pick of Dallas'. Back-to-back breakout seasons in Manhattan have allowed him to assume a title previously held by metropolitan legends such as Willis Reed, Walt "Clyde" Frazier, Earl "The Pearl" Monroe, and Patrick Ewing.
“This is a role that he takes seriously. He cherishes the responsibility and he respects the great Knicks captains that came before him," Wright lauded. "He will also gladly pass this title on one day and hope to groom the next captain. He sees the big picture better than any great player I’ve known."
