David Fizdale’s commitment to the Knicks’ youth movement is a good thing for Frank Ntilikina, not so much for Enes Kanter.
In the aftermath of the Knicks’ 127-109 loss to the Thunder on Monday afternoon at the Garden, one player was speaking optimistically about the remaining part of the season, while another was wondering about his future.
This clash in attitude is inevitable on a team in transition and could lead to internal division as the Knicks try to negotiate the final months of their season.
“Right now, we have to grow these kids and to see who is moving forward with us,” Fizdale said after the Knicks lost their 10th straight game at home.
