A defense of Kevin Knox, the most persecuted player of the NBA bubble season

The 2020 NBA Bubble has not been kind to Kevin Knox. Despite the fact that he hasn’t played in months, the young Knicks forward is constantly being skewered in the news and on social media.

Unfortunately for Knox — and Knicks fans in general — several of the players picked after him in the 2018 Draft are dominating at the moment. Michael Porter Jr., whose name many Knicks fans chanted on draft night, has been putting up crazy numbers. Mikal Bridges, who many at P&T headquarters wanted the team to pick, has been a premier defender and a key piece for the red-hot Suns.
