Since signing with the New York Knicks, Jalen Brunson has quickly established himself as the de facto superstar of the team. Considered one of the best free agent signings in NBA history, the point guard has made himself a lot of fans. One such fan is actor and comedian Larry David. He happens to follow Brunson so much that he tried to hilariously emulate Brunson’s style of play, leaving Rich Eisen and NBA fans in splits.

Larry David was a guest on the Rich Eisen Show and was talking about the New York Knicks. David showed how excited he was with the way the Knicks were playing and then proceeded to talk about Jalen Brunson. To help Eisen understand what he sees from the Knicks guard, David got up and emulated how the superstar glides in between defenders and shoots his step-back jumpers. He said this while enacting Brunson:

He's tremendous. He doesn't seem athletic in a way. And yet he slithers in, then he kinda does that thing, where he goes backwards.
