Did Kevin Hart Make NBA Star Jalen Brunson?

Hollywood's funny guy Kevin Hart is serving more than just laughs – he's playing a hilarious part in the origin story of New York Knicks hero Jalen Brunson. So here's the scoop: while chilling on an ESPN show, Hart threw a curveball by bragging about calling Brunson's success wayyy before anyone else.

Back when Jalen was just a kid hitting mid-range shots in the gym, Hart told Jalen's pops, Rick Brunson, “This kid's gonna be huge!” Fast forward, Brunson's killing it in the NBA, and Hart can't help but cheekily claim credit for spotting talent.

Jalen's response? A chuckle and a playful, “Couldn't have done it without Kev here.” But for real, Jalen's ballin' out for the Knicks, especially now that playoffs time is buzzing. And with Julius Randle out, can Jalen pilot the Knicks to glory? Fans are all eyes!
