Knicks guard Jalen Brunson sealed New York’s Eastern Conference finals sweep of the Cavaliers with a kiss.
After being named the series MVP by a unanimous vote, Brunson and his wife, Ali, embraced in an emotional moment on the court at Rocket Arena, as seen in photos of the pair Monday night.
“I can’t wait to tell Jordyn her dad is going to the NBA Finals,” Ali wrote in an Instagram Story post, including a snapshot of the couple’s 1-year-old daughter, who was sporting a Brunson tee.
Ali, who is a pilates instructor and a licensed doctor of physical therapy, reposted a Knicks flyer announcing Brunson — who scored 15 points in the Knicks’ 130-93 Game 4 clincher — as the 2026 Eastern Conference finals MVP.
She added a crying emoji and heart emojis.
Brunson averaged 25.5 points and 7.8 assists per game against Cleveland, while shooting 48.7 percent overall in that series.
Knicks legends, Walt “Clyde” Frazier and Patrick Ewing presented Brunson with the Larry Bird MVP trophy.
The Knicks have won 11 straight games en route to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999.
“It’s an honor to be here in this city and this organization,” Brunson said in his postgame press conference. “I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
“We’re still writing our story, but I like the journey that we’re on right now.”
