More on this storyline
Adam Wexler: The L2M was finally posted for #Rockets – #Knicks. Only 1 missed call & as ref Ed Malloy noted last night, the last foul was incorrect: “Brunson legally contests Holiday’s shot. Holiday released his shot before contact w/ Brunson & is able to return to a normal floor position.” -via Twitter @AdamJWexler / February 13, 2024

A few teams have kicked the tires on offseason additions Jeff Green and Aaron Holiday, team sources said, but as mentioned above, the Rockets value them more than others and are not interested in simply dumping them. Both players have strong relationships with Udoka and have carved out roles this season. -via The Athletic / February 8, 2024
Lower in the MVP race, the latest straw poll saw significant jumps from stars helming three of the league’s hottest teams: Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard, New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell. -via ESPN / February 13, 2024
Fred Katz: Jalen Brunson fielded three questions about the foul to end the game. Each time, he had the same four-word response: “Great call. Next question.” -via Twitter @FredKatz / February 13, 2024
