Jalen Brunson’s wife is ready to get back to The Garden after the Knicks took a 3-1 series lead in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series against the Sixers on Sunday.
Ali Marks shared a simple, but sweet message on social media after the All-Star point guard scored 47 points in the Knicks’ 97-92 victory over Philadelphia at Wells Fargo Center.
“Let’s go home,” Marks wrote over a photo of the Jumbotron, which featured the final score, along with a heart.
Marks also re-shared an Instagram post from the Knicks that called Brunson “Mr. Clutch.”
Brunson’s 47 points in Game 4 was the highest-scoring game of his playoff career — and the highest ever by a Knicks player in the postseason.
He added 10 assists and four rebounds.
It came after he scored 39 points in the Knicks’ 125-114 loss in Game 3 on Thursday.
Marks, who has supported Brunson since their high school days in Illinois, celebrated his first All-Star nod in February.
The couple tied the knot at Chicago’s Ritz-Carlton last July, about 10 months after Brunson and Marks announced their engagement in a September 2022 Instagram post.
Brunson proposed to Marks, a physical therapist, on the basketball court at Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Illinois, where the lovebirds first met as students.
Their engagement came two months after Brunson signed a four-year, $104 million deal with the Knicks that July.
Brunson spent the first four years of his career with the Mavericks, who selected him in the second round (No. 33 overall) of the 2018 NBA Draft.
The Knicks host the Sixers for a Game 5 elimination contest Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
