ORLANDO – While the Miami Heat will now head off to Las Vegas to continue their summer training, the New York Knicks completed their summer league play in impressive fashion.
New York’s backcourt duo of Chasson Randle and Damyean Dotson combined for 38 points as the Knicks rolled past the Heat, 91-72, on Thursday.
Dotson, who the Knicks grabbed with the 44th overall pick in last month’s draft, showed throughout the tournament that he is a prolific outside shooter with the physical tools and athleticism to step in right away and make an impact.
The 23-year-old rookie from Houston, Texas knocked down 12 3-pointers in five games, including going 4-for-7 from long range during Thursday's 20-point performance.
