What happened: ESPN flagged Jalen Brunson looking comfortable in the opening stretch of Game 4, airing live on ESPN and the ESPN App. The post highlights Brunson's early rhythm as the broadcast picks up. No box score or final result is attached to the signal.

Why it matters: Brunson's early form matters because the same Jalen Brunson who hit the clutch jumper to put the Knicks up late in Game 2 has been the engine of this playoff run. A quick start from him typically sets the offensive tone in high-leverage postseason games.

What to watch: Watch whether Brunson's early comfort holds into the second half and how it translates to the scoreboard. The next signal with a confirmed score or stat line will determine the game's actual stakes.
