Only four players in NBA history have earned Finals MVP honors at 6-foot-2 or shorter.

The first player to accomplish this feat was Isiah Thomas, who led the Detroit Pistons to their second consecutive NBA championship as Finals MVP in 1990.

6-foot-2 New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson joined the list after averaging 32.6 points per game in his team's NBA Finals win over the San Antonio Spurs, joining Thomas, Tony Parker and Stephen Curry.

Thomas related to Brunson as a "small" player during a recent appearance on the "Crossover Podcast."

“This is what we know as small people. Once we get our game right, we’re looking at everybody in the NBA saying ‘You can’t guard me. You can't guard me. You can't guard me,'" Thomas said. "What Jalen Brunson just proved again, is when your game is tight and right, no matter what size you are, you become the best at what you do."

"There wasn’t a player in the NBA this year, that you can say ‘Oh, he can guard Jalen Brunson,'" Thomas concluded.
