In their final scrimmage before the curtain goes up on the NBA season, both the New York Knicks and the Washington Wizards are likely to rest key players. Tonight, with stars riding the pine, it’s another chance for Knicks’ rookies (Pacome Dadiet, Ariel Hukporti, and Tyler Kolek) to shine, as they did in a victory over the Hornets on Tuesday. And it’s an opportunity for fringe Wizards like Patrick Baldwin Jr. and Tristan Vukcevic to prove their value to the club. Who knows—maybe former top-ten pick Johnny Davis will rise from his stupor like Lazarus-with-a-jumpsuit.
