In Phil Jackson’s defense, there’s no excuse for Kristaps Porzingis bailing on his exit interview. (Don’t get used to hearing the word defense associated with Jackson or his team that has ranked 28, 18 and 25 in the league in that category the last three years respectively.)
KP has tremendous upside and there are a ton of reasons to be excited about the possibility of him tapping into that superstar potential. Jackson even referred to him as a “unicorn” in his exclusive interview with the MSG network, a sign that the 2015 No. 4 overall pick could mature into an incredibly special player.
