Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson accomplish Knicks All-Star feat not seen in 50 years

For the first time in a half-century, the Knicks have two All-Star starters.

Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns were both named to the Eastern Conference squad for the Feb. 16 game in San Francisco, the NBA announced Thursday.

Brunson was a bit of a surprise after finishing third in the fan voting among Eastern Conference guards, but the combination of media and player ballots put him over the top.

Karl-Anthony Town has been named an All-Star starter in his first year as a Knick.

He snuck past LaMelo Ball, who was first in the fan voting but was seventh in the media vote and third in player voting.

Winning and availability clearly mattered more to the media regarding Ball, who has missed over a third of the season for his 11-29 Charlotte team.
