The New York Knicks are a veteran-laden team with a rotation that can go 11 deep when they are fully healthy. It’s not the best landing spot for rookies who are looking for playing time.
It’s no secret that Tom Thibodeau is as rigid a coach as they come. That’s his DNA as a coach and it’s part of what makes him great. In all likelihood, he’s going to stick with this group of starters and second-unit guys for the duration of the season, barring injuries, of course.
That leaves the rookie class watching and waiting from the bench.
