Martha Stewart has no bad blood for Jalen Brunson<\/a> after she suffered an injury during a New York Knicks game.<\/p>\n

During a recent appearance on Brunson and Josh Hart\u2019s Roommates Show podcast, Stewart brought up the incident that happened during Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Indiana Pacers at Madison Square Garden. Brunson went for a loose ball and ended up falling into Stewart, who was wearing open-toe sandals at the time.<\/p>\n

Brunson couldn\u2019t recall the incident, but he landed on her foot, which resulted in her breaking her toe.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou jumped up really fast,\u201d Stewart told Brunson. \u201cAnd I remember saying, \u2018It\u2019s okay.\u2019 You had no idea that you had hurt me. I didn\u2019t say you hurt me, but I said, \u2018It\u2019s okay.\u2019 It wasn\u2019t okay at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

He apologized for the incident despite not remembering that it happened. After the game, Stewart went to the Hospital for Special Surgery, where she revealed that hospital staff jokingly referred to it as the \u201cStewart-Brunson fracture.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added that it took up to a year to heal properly.<\/p>\n

Stewart took full blame for the incident and noted that she should have picked better shoes to wear to the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my fault for wearing open-toe shoes to a basketball game,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cIt was stupid of me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Just like Stewart\u2019s toe, the playoffs did not end well for the Knicks who ultimately lost 130-109 to the Pacers in Game 7. While this was the second year in a row that the Knicks made it to the Conference Semifinals<\/a>, Brunson still says there is a longer journey to be had before they get to where they want to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we have a long way to go to be back to where we want to be. And I actually like that because it\u2019s like a new focus for us,\u201d Brunson said (21:28 mark) on an episode that aired last year. <\/a>\u201cWe\u2019re not jumping back into where we were last year, it\u2019s like a whole new journey. It\u2019s really easy to be like, \u2018Alright, let\u2019s get back to the conference finals. That\u2019s our goal.\u2019 No, our goal is to get better every single day. Especially with this new regime, these new schemes, this new everything. It\u2019s like a whole reset.\u201d<\/p>\n
