Who: Knicks at Washington Wizards
Where: Verizon Center
When: 7 p.m. (MSG Network)
Game Notes:
- The Knicks rolled in Wednesday's preseason opener, beating Bauru Basket, 100-81, at MSG.
- Carmelo Anthony looked sharp in his first game action since knee surgery last February. The Brazilian club team had no answer for his array of offensive moves, and Melo swished and dished to the tune of 17 points (on 8-of-10 shooting) in 20 minutes. Needless to say, he's back.
- Kristaps Porzingis and Sasha Vujacic joined Jose Calderon, Robin Lopez and Anthony in the starting lineup on Wednesday.
