NEW YORK (AP) —
New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson will make a guest-starring appearance on “Law & Order: SVU” this fall.
NBC announced Thursday that Brunson will appear in the season’s fifth episode, which is scheduled to air Nov. 5. Details on Brunson’s exact role weren’t revealed.
Brunson already is set to host the season premiere of
“Saturday Night Live”
on Sept. 26. He made an
appearance
Monday in the opening of the
Emmy Awards
telecast that was hosted by “Law & Order: SVU” star Mariska Hargitay.
Hargitay is a Knicks fan who attended
Game 4
of the NBA Finals as New York rallied from a
29-point deficit
to beat the San Antonio Spurs 107-106, a victory that sparked the franchise to its
first title since 1973.
Hargitay and Brunson hugged on the court after the game.
