Arron Afflalo's hamstring trouble was one of the few dark clouds hovering over what proved to be a fairly pleasant preseason. New York's medical staff performed some more tests on the shooting guard, who won't participate in the team's open Sunday practice:
An MRI of Arron Afflalo’s left hamstring revealed a mild strain. He will not practice today and is listed as day-to-day.
