The Nets three young guards had good games Friday night at the Garden, admittedly against a Knick corps that leaves a lot to be desired.
Still, 22-year-old D’Angelo Russell finished with 18 points, eight assists, four rebounds and only one turnover. He shot an efficient 6-of-12, including 2-of-5 from deep.
Playing next to him, 24-year-old Caris LeVert hit 4-of-6 three-pointers, 5-of-14 overall, adding 14 points, four assists and three rebound to the Nets mix. He finished with three turnovers, giving him 17 for preseason.
Backing up the two of them quite efficiently, 25-year-old Spencer Dinwiddie had a team-high 19 points, shooting 6-of-11, including 2-of-5 from downtown, to go along with five rebounds, three assists and again only one turnover.
