Jordan Clarkson may have walked in Willy Chavarria’s spring 2027 menswear show this summer, but he’s not the only New York Knicks player to give modeling a try.
Jalen Brunson made his unexpected runway debut yesterday at the Rookie Kids × Macy’s Runway on Broadway fashion show. The Knicks captain’s daughter, Jordyn, hit the runway in a tiny Knicks jersey—dad’s number 11, awww—festooned with feathers, a white bow headband, and a pair of little blue-and-white sneakers. But while she was already holding mom Ali’s hand on the catwalk, it seemed that Jordyn was more keen for her dad to join her, rather than merely watch from the front row.
Brunson gamely hopped up from the crowd. With each parent holding a hand, Jordyn was far more content to finish her walk.
While the 2026-2027 NBA season doesn’t start until late October, Brunson is keeping busy. Earlier this week, he helped Mariska Hargitay kick off the 2026 Emmys with a charming cold open. (Consider it a prelude to his acting career: Brunson will guest star on an episode of Law & Order: SVU in November.) Now, he’s making his pivot to fashion.
So while we know that Jalen Brunson is MVP on the court, he’s coming for the title on the runway, too.
