Brunson checked back into Monday's game against Cleveland with 11:01 remaining in the fourth quarter after heading back to the locker room with a knee injury, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
Brunson was checked out by trainers after limping back to the locker room following a drive to the basket. He was stretching his right knee on the bench and was seen wearing a knee brace -- which he has since taken off. The All-Star is expected to finish off the game after missing the majority of the third quarter.
