After Friday’s practice, the New York Knicks fired coach David Fizdale after just 19 months on the job. A 4-18 record in 2019-20 resulted in this early dismissal, carrying on with the frustration president Steve Mills and general manager Scott Perry had in a November press conference.
There is a game to play on Saturday, however, as the Knicks face the Indiana Pacers at home. Mike Miller will begin as the interim coach, so there are plenty of unknowns for how the lineups will look. That throws the latest “players to watch for” in a loop.
