HAPPY 54TH BIRTHDAY, APPA

A simple birthday tribute to the best Appa in the world.

I view pressure… my dad, he was in the league on 10-day contracts and non-guaranteed deals. Being able to see that, and getting older and seeing what he had to do for his family to live — I have it easy.

Jalen Brunson, on his father Rick Brunson

Rick Brunson played nine NBA seasons for eight different teams before becoming a Knicks assistant coach.

I love you so much Appa. When I read this quote it really resounded with me — Brunson was asked how he dealt with pressure.
