The city that never sleeps certainly won’t sleep on Jalen Brunson and the Knicks.

“Don’t sleep,” the billboard reads over a picture of Brunson from behind wearing his blue and orange No.11 jersey with one arm raised in the air.

The 27-year-old point guard finished fourth in the NBA in scoring during the regular season with 28.7 points per game, and he upped that output to a league-leading 35.5 points per game in a six-game ousting of the 76ers in the first round.
