Joakim Noah noted improvement in his left hamstring and hopes to make his debut with the Knicks in Saturday’s preseason game against the Nets at Madison Square Garden, but the forward was unable to participate in Thursday’s practice and remains day-to-day.
“I’m still not where I want to be,” Noah said. “I’m a little disappointed. I want to be out there, but I have to be smart.”
Noah performed some drills, worked on spot shooting and spent time in the weight room, but he was unsure if he would be able to fully rejoin the team for Friday’s practice.
