Brunson spent the first four seasons of his career with the Mavs, so he will not get a chance to face off with them for the first time as a visitor.    

In his first 34 games with the Knicks, the former Villanova star is averaging 20.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 6.6 assists per contest. 

He is also shooting 46.0% from the field and 36.6% from the three-point range.

The Knicks come into the night as the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference with an 18-16 record in 34 games. 

They had been on an eight-game winning streak but are now on a three-game losing streak.

Over the last ten games, the Knicks are 7-3, and they are a solid 10-6 in 16 games on the road. 

As for the Mavs, they are tied with the Utah Jazz and Portland Trail Blazers for the seventh seed in the Western Conference. 

Through 34 games, they are 18-16 and currently in the middle of a three-game winning streak. 

Over the last ten games, the Mavs are 5-5, and they are 13-5 in the 18 games they have hosted at home in Texas. 

The two teams faced off in New York earlier this month, and the Mavs won 121-100.
