New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson was a victim of his own teammates – who found the point guard’s wallet in the locker room and helped himself to some snacks.
Brunson and Team USA were playing an international game against Puerto Rico in Las Vegas when the point guard left his wallet behind.
It was discovered by two of his teammates: Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton and Brandon Ingram of the New Orleans Pelicans.
Upon his discovery, the pair jumped at the chance to prank the star by heading to the vending machine at the T-Mobile Arena.
They then took to Instagram, posted a video showing off their booty and rubbed it in.

Showing off a bag of Funyuns, Haliburton said, “JB left his wallet and we beat him” — tagging Brunson in the video with the caption, “You know you’re good for it.”
Ingram seemed to take more advantage of Brunson — flashing a red Gatorade, Ruffles potato chips, and a cinnamon bun.
Brunson saw the video and was notably unimpressed with their efforts, saying “Can’t even be good criminals, smh”.
The match was one of a number of World Cup matchups played by the United States.
They have four more on the line – with games against Slovenia, Spain, Greece and Germany ahead.
