The New York Knicks completed the 2019-20 NBA Preaseason with a 117-116 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Allonzo Trier almost singlehandedly won that game after scoring 17-points in 24-minutes. Trier missed a couple potential game winning three-pointers late in the fourth quarter. However, Allonzo Trier is a deadly offensive weapon and the Pelicans really didn’t seem to have an answer for him during the preseason finale.
Allonzo Trier’s natural scoring ability might catapult him into a closer for the New York Knicks. It will be difficult for Fizdale to take Iso Zo off the basketball court due to the problems he gives opposing defenders especially in isolation situations.
