New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson recently called teammate Josh Hart "the most annoying person ever" in a video that quickly gained attention online. This remark came during a lighthearted moment when DeMarcus Cousins asked Brunson to name the most irritating player in the Knicks locker room.
Brunson’s comment was direct, as he pointed to Hart without hesitation. "I’m pretty sure the world saw what he’s done," Brunson said, followed by, "I’m not gonna say his name. I’m just, No. 3 on the Knicks. He’s the most annoying person ever."
The players share a long-standing relationship that dates back to their college days as roommates at Villanova. Since Hart’s trade to the Knicks from the Portland Trail Blazers in February last year, the duo has maintained their close bond. They even launched a podcast called Roommates one year later, highlighting their off-court chemistry.
Despite their friendship, Brunson and Hart frequently engage in playful banter, particularly on social media platforms. One of their latest exchanges occurred on X (formerly Twitter) on February 7, demonstrating their ongoing friendly rivalry.
Brunson made these remarks while speaking to the media ahead of the upcoming All-Star Game. He will represent USA Stripes in a three-team round-robin tournament featuring USA Stars and Team World. The event is scheduled to begin Sunday at 5 p.m. ET at the Intuit Dome.
The dynamic between Brunson and Hart adds an intriguing layer to the Knicks’ locker room atmosphere. Their interactions, full of humor and rivalry, reflect a unique team chemistry that resonates with fans and media alike.
