WASHINGTON — They say it is not who starts, but who finishes. And after being briefly banished from the rotation and relegated to the bench, Randy Foye is back playing for the Nets — and even making heart-stopping plays in crunch time.
After draining a buzzer-beating 3 to knock off the Hornets in Brooklyn on Monday, the veteran guard scored a season-high 11 points and logged 28:25 off the bench Wednesday in Chicago, the third-most minutes on the team. He was on the floor down the stretch, and has impressed coach Kenny Atkinson.
“He organizes us a little better,” Atkinson said ahead of Friday’s game against the Wizards at Verizon Center.
