Without a few key pieces, the New York Knicks would be nowhere near the 4th seed in the Eastern Conference standings. In fact, some of their more influential catalysts aren’t even everyday starters but rather bench players.
One in specific is Theo Pinson, who was previously with the Brooklyn Nets before being claimed by the Knicks this season. He’s only played in 14 games, averaging 2.2 minutes per game, mainly cheering from the bench and offering his assistance as a motivator.
Pinson is not only known as a professional basketball player but also one of the best teammates you can possibly have at the NBA level.
