Brunson recently capped off his offseason media appearances with an appearance on the “Roommates Show” alongside teammate Josh Hart. During the August 25 episode, Brunson reiterated that his personal benchmark hasn’t shifted since childhood: winning a championship.
“All of my goals are basically team-based. That hasn’t changed.,” Brunson said. “I feel like success is subjective to what you want. It varies from person to person, but I think, obviously, going through a journey and trying to perfect who you are as a basketball player, and then do whatever you can to try to win a championship.”
Brunson is expected to elevate the Knicks for the 2025 season of the NBA.
Sophie Cunningham Stuns in Injury Update Video
Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham has sent waves through the WNBA fanbase after a lighthearted video surfaced showing her dancing and lip-syncing to Renée Rapp’s “I Think I Like You Better When You’re Gone” in little more than a bikini and knee brace. The clip, which made its way around social feeds thanks to NBA Memes, captures Cunningham’s buoyant spirit just weeks after suffering what was ultimately diagnosed as a season-ending injury.
Cunningham shared a cheeky update regarding her rehab on her Instagram, along with a selfie mid-laugh. The post served two purposes; it shows that medical progress is being made and it sends a good message to opponents. When she returns to court, she is coming right back to business.

Cunningham got hurt midway through the first quarter of a game against the Connecticut Sun, as she landed on her left leg after making a pass to the perimeter, and immediately buckled and writhed in obvious pain. Cunningham hobbled off the court under her own power, the first set of X-rays were unremarkable but after her MRI on February 14 confirmed she had a complete tear of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) in her left knee.
Prior to her injury, Sophie Cunningham has been averaging 8.6 points per game, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.2 assists.
