Jalen Brunson, the star player for the New York Knicks, married his longtime girlfriend, Ali Marks, on July 29, 2023. The wedding took place at The Ritz-Carlton Chicago and was attended by both current and former teammates.
A year after their marriage, Brunson, who recently opened up about the Mikal Bridges trade, celebrated his anniversary by sharing several wedding photos on his Instagram account.
Fans of the Knicks were incredibly excited to see pictures of their beloved player and showed their support for the couple in the comments section of the post. However, the way that fans showed love was a bit hilarious.
One fan teased the couple, saying, “I love you more than she does.” Another fan exclaimed, “Does she know she’s married to the king of NY?” Then, another fan expressed jealousy towards Brunson’s wife, asking, “What does she have that I don’t?” Lastly, another fan humorously remarked, “I’ve never been so jealous of a woman in my life.”
Brunson, who was selected 33rd overall in the 2018 NBA draft by the Dallas Mavericks, became frustrated with his fans’ reactions and turned off the comments on his post.
