No official report was released by the New York Knicks regarding Brunson's injury. Head coach Mike Brown informed that the player rolled his ankle when the game was about to end.
The incident took place in the fourth quarter, with only two minutes left for the game to end. Brunson is said to have turned his right ankle while driving to the basket, as per Bleacher Report.
Once he shot his free throws, Brunson committed a take foul and was later taken to the locker room. Speaking to reporters post the game, Brown said that Brunson turned his right ankle, but "that's all" he knew at that time.

Before suffering the injury, Brunson had 31 points, six assists as well as three rebounds during his over 30 minutes of action at Madison Square Garden.
According to Bleacher Report, he managed to shoot 10-of-23 from the field along with 1-of-4 from behind the arc.
His latest injury comes after Brunson remained out of the roster for 15 games towards the end of the 2024-25 season. At that time, he missed the action due to a right ankle sprain.
If Brunson's latest injury forces him to remain out of action for an extended period, this could land a major blow to the New York Knicks, which is eying the Eastern Conference crown.
Brunson headed into Wednesday's game as the side's leading scorer during the 2025-26 campaign. He averaged 27.7 points and 6.6 assists per game. For now, the Knicks sit at 7-4 in the league.
If Brunson remains unavailable for upcoming matches, then Miles McBride could replace him in the starting lineup.
New York Knicks head coach Mike Brown said that Brunson rolled his ankle when the match was about to end.
As of now, the NBA side has not provided an update regarding Brunson's injury.
The Orlando Magic star suffered a left groin strain and played for only 12 minutes before exiting.
