Jalen Brunson says taking a pay cut helped him play with peace of mind:
“If I waited a year, it would’ve been about $100 million more, but the average career is about 4 years. Having that uncertainty of betting on yourself, you don’t really know. So just knowing I’m good, my family’s good, I can just play free. I don’t have to worry about anything.”
That mindset helped bring a championship to New York. 🏆🗽
