The New York Knicks finally secured their first win of the season on Tuesday, defeating the Detroit Pistons 112-97. Although Josh Hart did not make a significant contribution to the scoring in the victory, Jalen Brunson knows what fuels his teammate's unique mentality and energy.

After the game, when Brunson was asked what he believes drives Hart's mentality, the Knicks captain jokingly pointed to his teammate's unusual combination of snacks and drinks.

“Popcorn, candy, wine and caffeine. He's a different person,” Brunson said.
