Knicks’ French center reeling and ‘scared’ after Paris attacks

Knicks big man Kevin Seraphin, who was schooled in Paris and lives there in the offseason, was left stunned and scared by the terrorist attacks that rocked his hometown on Friday.

France has declared a national state of emergency and has closed its borders after more than 158 people were killed in gun and bomb attacks in Paris. Seraphin said his parents and brother are safe, but he had no idea about his friends.

“For my family, my mom and dad are here right now and my brother is in Toronto. So no one from my family,’’ Seraphin said.
