In tomorrow’s inagural preseason game, the new look New York Knicks will take on the Charlotte Hornets. Both teams are looking to fine-tune their rotations ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. For the Knicks, key players like Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns (still getting used to that…) are likely to see restricted minutes as head coach Tom Thibodeau evaluates younger talent and new additions like rookie Tyler Kolek.
All eyes will be on how Towns integrates with the team and what chemistry is (or isn’t) apparent. Additionally, Thibs will want to see what the other draftees (Pacome Dadiet, Ariel Hukporti) can provide in support of the starters, as well as what skills Jericho Sims has perfected this offseason.
