The start of Kevin Knox’s career with the New York Knicks started rocky. He was removed from the starting lineup, despite sticking in it throughout the preseason, suffered a sprained ankle days into the regular season and was at the forefront of public criticism.
After a fiery defense from head coach David Fizdale, Knox began to settle in and become comfortable on the basketball court.
In general, the Kentucky product’s relationship with his coach has developed on and off the hardwood, which includes setting up Knox with Knicks legend, Bernard King, to learn about the game.
