Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton squared off once again on WWE SmackDown.
New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson was in the house of the June 28th episode of WWE SmackDown at Madison Square Garden. Brunson was shown in the crowd before the triple threat bout between LA Knight, Logan Paul, and Santos Escobar.
Not to be outdone, Logan brought Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton to be in his corner.

LA Knight would go on to win the bout and qualify for the Money in the Bank ladder match.
After the bout, Knight was circled by Paul and Haliburton, but Brunson entered the fray with a chair to back away the enemies of New York.
