Lifestyle and homemaking mogul and entrepreneur Martha Stewart<\/a> revealed that New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson accidentally stepped on and broke her toe during the team’s 138-135 overtime loss to the Indiana Pacers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals last May.<\/p>\n

Stewart revealed the news during an appearance on the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.<\/p>\n

“See those open-toe shoes? Never, ever wear open-toe shoes to a game like that when you’re sitting on the floor,” Stewart said (h\/t Michelle Lee<\/a> of People Magazine).<\/p>\n

“Jalen [Knicks point guard], who’s now super-duper, he’s so great…I have the Brunson fracture. He stepped on my big toe on this foot. That’s why I’m wearing open-toe shoes, because that’s the only kind of shoes I can wear now,” Stewart added.<\/p>\n

Stewart said Brunson crashed into her and fell on her lap. She added that she knew her toe was “broken immediately.”<\/p>\n

Stewart also noted that Brunson signed a basketball for her grandchild after what happened.<\/p>\n

That was a tough day for the Knicks, who blew a 14-point lead with under three minutes remaining en route to the overtime loss. The Pacers ended up beating the Knicks in six games to make the NBA Finals.<\/p>\n

New York has persevered after that tough loss, though, going 18-7 thus far and even winning the NBA Cup on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. The Knicks’ win-loss record is good enough for second in the Eastern Conference right now as they look for their first NBA Finals appearance since 1999 and first championship since 1973.<\/p>\n

Brunson has led the charge, averaging 28.8 points and 6.4 assists per game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lifestyle and homemaking mogul and entrepreneur Martha Stewart revealed that New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson accidentally…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":355318,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[574],"tags":[64,63,726,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-355317","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-basketball","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-basketball","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355317","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=355317"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355317\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/355318"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=355317"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=355317"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=355317"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
