Tyler Kolek had an interview this week with the New York Post, where he was asked about the comparisons to TJ McConnell, the feisty Pacers guard who has haunted the Knicks for the better part of a decade. “It’s all right, I think it’s a little lazy.”
Kolek wasn’t a fan of the comparison. In fact, he compared himself to Knicks’ star guard Jalen Brunson, saying “His game, I feel like that’s a little closer to what I like to do than T.J. McConnell: play at my own pace, getting in the paint, getting guys involved,”
Today, you got a glimpse of what Kolek promised he was.
